FORAMINIFERA  COLLECTED  NEAR  THE  HAWAIIAN 
ISLANDS  BY  THE  STEAMER  ALBATROSS  IN  1902.

Of  the  University  of  Illinois , Urhana,  Illinois. 


While  the  examination  of  this  material  was  in  progress,  after  about 
100  species  of  Foraminifera  had  been  identified  and  described,  almost 
the  entire  collection  was  destroyed  by  fire  and  the  original  scale  of 
the  report  thus  had  to  be  abandoned.  It  is  possible  to  give  only  a 
summary  of  the  results  derived  from  a study  of  the  material  saved 
from  the  fire,  which  consists  of  19  bottles  containing  chiefly  typical 
Globigerina  and  Pulvinulina  ooze.  The  species,  over  200  in  number, 
represent  54  genera  and  are  mostly  characteristic  of  warm  waters  in 
tropical  oceans. 

The  following  method  was  used  in  the  examination  of  the  ma- 
terial: On  a fine-grained  cloth  of  double  thickness  in  a long  porce- 
lain tray  were  poured  the  contents  of  each  vial.  Additional  alcohol 
was  used  to  thoroughly  wash  this  ooze,  and  the  Foraminifera  were 
spread  out  on  the  cloth,  which  was  then  lifted  out  and  dried  over  a 
lamp.  The  shells  were  easily  shaken  from  the  dried  cloth,  not  dried 
together  in  lumps,  and  a soft  brush  removed  from  the  cloth  the  very 
finest  portion  of  the  ooze  that  might  be  left  after  shaking.  The 
forms  thus  selected  were  clean  and  white  and  could  be  spread  out  on 
black  cardboard  for  microscopic  examination.  The  remainder  of  the 
alcoholic  solution,  with  the  finest  mud  and  ooze,  was  allowed  to  settle 
in  the  tray,  and,  with  the  label,  was  returned  to  the  bottle  from  which 
it  had  been  taken.  With  this  method  any  radiolaria  or  diatoms  that 
may  have  been  present  were  left  in  the  solution  and  can  be  further 
studied.  The  mechanical  sediment  likewise  was  saved,  and  the  frag- 
ments of  any  other  organisms  that  might  be  present.  It  was  found 
best  to  examine  most  of  the  material  in  reflected  light,  and  the  tests 
were  most  readily  studied  upon  a black  background,  for  which  pur- 
pose I used  thick  glossy  cardboard  which  had  been  glued  to  a glass 
slide.

The  mounting  and  extraction  of  Foraminifera  can  be  accomplished 
in  many  ways.  An  excellent  description  of  such  work  is  to  be  found 
in  Chapman’s  The  Foraminifera  (chap,  xix,  pp.  291-326).  It  is, 
however,  rather  expensive  and  tedious  to  mount  on  separate  cover 
under  glass  every  species  recognized,  and  I therefore  used  the  follow- 
ing method : The  specimen  to  be  preserved  was  fastened  with  strong 
glue  upon  a slip  of  heavy  white  paper  which  had  been  blackened 
with  india  ink  where  the  specimen  was  to  be  mounted.  On  this  slip 
of  paper  was  put  also  the  number  and  description  of  the  dredging  sta- 
tion and  the  name  of  the  species  mounted.  Two  specimens  upon  dif- 
ferent surfaces  are  generally  all  that  is  required  for  future  use, 
although  it  is  desirable  to  have  a side  aspect  of  the  test,  and  this  re- 
quires some  skill  to  keep  the  form  in  place  until  it  is  permanently 
fixed.  If  in  future  these  forms  are  wanted  for  other  purposes  they 
can  readily  be  detached  by  strong  vinegar  and  washed  quickly  in 
alcohol  and  water.  A wet  brush  enables  one  to  pick  up  the  tiny 
shells  with  considerable  rapidity  and  to  hold  them  in  any  desired 
position  while  studying  them. 

Only  brief  descriptions  of  species  have  been  given  in  most  instances 
in  this  report,  but  new  forms  and  also  some  of  the  more  important 
known  types  have  been  discussed  quite  fully.  The  new  forms  are 
bottled  separately  and  marked  “ Type,”  and  have  been  deposited  in 
the  U.  S.  National  Museum.  While  I have  not  separately  mounted 
from  every  bottle  of  dredgings  each  species  as  it  repeatedly  occurred, 
every  form  identified  has  been  selected  and  mounted  by  the  method 
described,  and  in  many  instances  a single  form  has  been  prepared 
again  and  again  as  particularly  instructive  and  characteristic.  In 
the  arrangement  of  the  classification  of  species  given  in  this  paper 
we  have  followed  the  order  adopted  by  the  British  authorities  on 
the  Rhizopoda,  W.  K.  Parker,  T.  R.  Jones,  W.  B.  Carpenter,  and 
amended  by  H.  B.  Brady  and  the  later  writers,  C.  D.  Sherborn 
and  Frederick  Chapman. 

The  first  reference  of  each  form  listed  is  that  of  the  original  descrip- 
tion of  the  species.  Much  valuable  information  has  been  obtained 
from  the  exhaustive  monographs  by  Prof.  H.  B.  Brady  in  the  Chal- 
lenger Report,  and  by  Dr.  Alexander  Goes  on  Arctic  and  Scandi- 
navian recent  marine  Foraminifera®,  and  the  excellent  report  on 
recent  Foraminifera  by  Dr.  James  M.  Flint6.  Mention  should  be 
made  also  of  such  invaluable  works  as  Williamson’s  Recent  Foramini- 
fera of  Great  Britain  (Ray  Society,  1858)  ; Brady,  Parker,  and  Jones 
on  some  Foraminifera  from  Abrohlos  Bank  (1888)  Chapman’s  The

Foraminifera  (1902)  ; and  d’Orbigny’s  Foraminifera  of  the  Vienna 
Basin  (1846),  which  have  been  found  indispensable. 

There  are  some  anomalies  concerning  the  bathymetric  range  of  a 
number  of  species  mentioned  in  this  report.  The  occurrence  of  few 
deep-water  types  in  those  stations  beyond  1,000  fathoms  is  not  easily 
accounted  for,  but  it  must  be  remembered  that  many  of  these  Fora- 
minifera are  of  almost  universal  distribution,  and  some  that  are  rec- 
ognized and  described  are  not  at  all  common  or  abundant  and  would 
not  be  considered  as  determining  the  probable  depth  of  the  ocean 
from  whence  they  came.  Systematists  on  the  Foraminifera  can  not 
be  too  careful  on  this  point.  It  is  well  known  that  the  temperature 
of  the  great  oceans  is  fairly  constant  below  a few  hundred  fathoms, 
and  the  distribution  of  life  is  on  the  whole  quite  largely  dependent 
upon  the  distribution  of  the  food  supply  as  well  as  upon  temperature 
of  the  water  in  which  these  organisms  live.  Then  again  some  forms 
are  pelagic  in  habit  and  can  easily  be  found  after  death  in  bottom 
material  in  an  occasional  specimen.  It  is  but  proper  to  state  that 
we  have  considerable  evidence  of  rather  shallow  water,  say  not  over 
500  fathoms,  in  the  material  studied,  while  the  facts  show  that  a 
number  of  the  stations  are  considerably  over  1,000  fathoms  in  depth. 
Those  species  which  reach  their  maximum  development  and  are  most 
abundant  in  each  station  determine  more  safely  the  relative  depth 
than  do  any  occasional  specimens  obtained  from  the  same  locality. 
Bryozoa,  Mollusca,  both  lamellibranchs  and  gastropods,  are  found  in 
a number  of  bottles,  also  fragments  of  shells  from  stations  below  200 
fathoms,  and  this  is  rather  hard  to  explain  unless  they  have  been 
carried  outward  by  tidal  or  other  ocean  currents  in  rapid  motion. 

The  greatest  variety  of  forms  was  obtained  at  Station  4694,  from 
which  62  species  were  determined.  The  smallest  number  (4)  came 
from  Station  4579,  where  the  material  was  chiefly  mechanical  sedi- 
ment. Mollusca  were  present  in  some  of  the . dredgings,  particularly 
tiny  gastropods,  with  an  occasional  lamellibranch,  often  very  beauti- 
fully colored.  Ostracoda  of  several  genera  were  quite  prominent. 
Diatoms  and  radiolarians  in  a few  instances  were  met  with,  also 
fragments  of  corals  and  bryozoans.  In  a few  bottles  small  mouth 
plates  of  fishes  were  present.  There  were  a large  number  of  sponge 
spicules  (siliceous),  and  in  some  bottles  fragments  of  volcanic  glass 
and  land-derived  sand  grains  with  opalescent  quartz.  Phosphatic 
nodules  which  dissolve  very  readily  in  acids  appear  in  some 
localities. 

Most  of  the  Foraminifera  in  this  collection  belong  to  calcareous 
types  with  perforate  tests,  but  the  Miliolidse  are  well  represented  in 
some  stations.  The  species  Candeina  nitida , Globigerina  cequilater- 
alis , Globigerina  bulloides , Orbulina  universa , Pulvinulina  menardii , 
and  Pulvinulina  micheliniana  are  present  in  nearly  every  station’s

Biloculina  bulloides  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  1,  1820,  p.  297, 
pi.  xvi,  figs.  1-4. 

Thick-shelled  globose  test  with  highly  inflated  segments  and  cir- 
cular aperture.  The  species  belong  to  moderate  depths  and  has 
been  obtained  in  all  the  great  oceans  rather  sparingly,  but  is  more 
common  in  the  North  Atlantic. 

Occurs  as  stated  above,  and  is  best  developed  at  depths  ranging 
from  300  to  about  1,000  fathoms.  In  the  neighborhood  of  the  New 
Guinea  Islands  this  foraminifer  has  been  obtained  in  very  shoal 
waters.  It  is  present  at  Albatross  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4025,  H.  4555, 
and  H.  4696. 

BILOCULINA  COMATA  Brady. 

Biloculina  comata  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s.,  1881,  p.  45. 

Similar  to  Biloculina  bulloides , but  with  the  surface  covered  by 
longitudinal  striations,  and  the  shell  of  large  dimensions.  Found 
with  other  biloculine  forms  in  the  North  Atlantic  and  the  Pacific 
oceans.  Pare  in  the  dredgings  we  have  studied.  Present  only  at 
Station  D.  4000. 


BILOCULINA  DEPRESSA  d’Orbigny. 

Biloculina  depressa  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  7,  1826,  p.  298, 
modele  No.  91. 

Margin  thin  and  angular,  shell  depressed  as  the  name  implies. 
The  form  is  closely  related  to  Biloculina  ringens , but  the  latter  has 
less  sharply  defined  margin  and  a different  aperture. 

If  the  foraminifers  described  and  figured  by  Terquem  and  Berthe- 
lin  from  the  Lias  of  Essey-les-Nancy  under  the  name  Biloculina  lias- 
sica  are  identical  with  the  present  form  the  species  occurs  much 
earlier  geologically  than  any  of  its  congenitors.  Its  recent  distribu- 
tion is  similar  to  that  of  Biloculina  bulloides  given  above.  It  was 
found  at  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4502,  H.  4566,  H.  4567,

A variety  of  Biloculina  depressa  characterized  by  two  angular 
spinous  projections  near  the  base  of  the  test  and  placed  symmetri- 
.cally  apart  from  the  median  line.

This  variety  would  appear  to  be  rare,  judging  from  the  Challenger 
investigations,  as  Professor  Brady  mentions  but  four  localities,  two 
each  from  the  North  and  South  Atlantic  and  Pacific  oceans.  Dr. 
C.  Schwager’s  specimens  came  from  the  Pliocene  of  Nicobar  Islands. 
This  form  was  found  at  Station  H.  4502,  and  was  abundant  at  Sta- 
tion H.  4555. 


BILOCULINA  IRREGULARIS  d’Orbigny. 

Biloculina  irregularis  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Amer.  Merid.,  1839,  p.  67,  pi.  viii, 
figs.  22-24. 

This  species  does  not  reveal  the  characteristic  biloculine  habit  of 
growth  in  its  adult  stage,  but  the  test  is  globose  and  there  are  two 
major  segments  in  the  final  development  which  are  similar  to  Bilo- 
culina bulloides  in  their  shape  and  position.  The  asymmetry  ap- 
pears from  the  third  segment,  cutting  one  side  obliquely  like  Poly- 
morphina  types  and  appearing  as  a faint  line  on  the  outer  surface 
of  the  shell  neither  depressed  nor  elevated. 

Biloculina  ventricosa  Reuss,  is  the  same  as  this  species,  which  can 
be  distinguished  from  Biloculina  sphaera  by  its  milioline  aperture 
and  the  extension  of  the  ultimate  chamber. 

The  Challenger  dredged  this  foraminifer  from  the  neighborhood 
of  the  Canaries  in  1,125  fathoms;  off  Sombrero  Island,  450  fathoms; 
south  of  Pernambuco,  350  fathoms,  and  in  mid-ocean  in  the  South 
Atlantic  from  1,415  fathoms.  It  was  also  obtained  near  the  Fiji, 
Tahiti,  and  Papua  islands  at  depths  of  610,  620,  and  1,070  fathoms, 
respectively.  The  Albatross  found  it  only  at  Station  4696,  where  it 
was  rare. 

The  Septaria  clays  of  Hermsdorf  near  Berlin  and  the  salt  beds  of 
Wieliczka  have  furnished  the  species  among  other  fossil  Forami- 
nifera. 

BILOCULINA  ELONGATA  d’Orbigny. 

Biloculina  elongate  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  4,  1826,  p.  298. 

Test  resembling  Biloculina  ringens  in  outline  and  aperture  but 
longer  and  much  narrower,  as  the  name  implies.  The  species  appears 
to  be  the  equivalent  of  Bioculina  bougainvillei  and  B.  patagonica  of 
d’Orbigny.  The  shell  shows  considerable  variation,  chiefly  in 
amount  of  elongation  and  globosity. 

Unlimited  in  distribution  and  depth,  but  most  abundant  in  the 
South  Pacific.  Specimens  were  obtained  at  Stations  D.  4017,  D. 
4025,  and  H.  4567.

Spiroloculina  acutimargo  Brady,  Chal.  Rept.,  IX,  1884,  p.  154,  pi.  x,  fig. 
12-15. 

The  carinate  peripheral  margin  of  this  thin  complanate  foraminifer 
is  its  chief  characteristic.  It  has  been  obtained  at  Bermuda,  435 
fathoms,  four  stations  in  the  South  Atlantic,  350  to  1,425  fathoms, 
and  three  localities  in  the  South  Pacific,  15  to  255  fathoms,  and  also 
in  shore  sands  of  Madagascar.  Present  rarely  at  Stations  D.  4174,

pi.  x,  figs.  14,  15. 

A thin  complanate  Spiroloculina  with  striate  surface  and  common 
in  coral  reef  material  down  to  400  or  500  fathoms.  First  described 
in  the  Tertiary  of  the  island  of  Rhodes.  Occurs  at  Stations  D.  4017,

Spiroloculina  limbata  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  12,  1826,  p.  299. 

Common  in  shallow  water  and  found  down  to  400  fathoms  in 
tropical  and  subtropical  oceans.  Known  also  from  the  Septaria  Clay 
of  Germany  and  in  the  later  formations  of  Italy  and  Sicily.  Found 
at  Station  D.  4017  only  ; depth,  305  fathoms. 

SPIROLOCULINA  NITIDA  d’Orbigny. 

Spiroloculina  nitida  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  4,  1826,  p.  298. 

Common  in  coral  tropical  sands  and  in  the  inland  Japan  and 
Mediterranean  seas.  Found  at  Station  D.  4017  only;  depth,  305 
fathoms. 

SPIROLOCULINA  PLANULATA  (Lamarck). 

Miliolites  planulata  Lamarck,  Ann.  du  Museum,  V,  No.  4,  1805,  p.  352; 
Anim.  Sans  Vert.,  VII,  No.  4,  1822,  p.  613. 

With  the  exception  of  two  soundings  mentioned  by  Parker  and 
Jones,  this  species  is  limited  to  shoal  waters  in  temperate  and  sub- 
tropical oceans.  It  is  rather  common  also  in  coral  shoal  water  sands 
in  the  Pacific  and  Indian  oceans  and  Red  Sea.  Found  at  Stations 
D.  4025,  H.  4508,  and  H.  4694.

Quinqueloculina  tenuis  Czjzek,  Haidinger’s  Nat.  Abhandl.,  II,  1847,  p.  149, 
pi.  xiii,  figs.  31-34. 

Inhabiting  all  great  oceans.  Abundant  in  the -South  Pacific  but 
less  common  in  the  North  Pacific,  and  known  from  depths  of  a few 
fathoms  down  to  2,750.  Professor  Brady  writes  that  the  finest  speci- 
mens come  from  moderate  depths.  Fossil  in  the  Austrian  Tertiary. 
Occurs  at  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4017,  H.  4440,  H.  4571,  H.  4590,  and 
H.  4696. 

Genus  MILIOLINA. 

MILIOLINA  BICORNIS  var.  ELEGANS  Williamson. 

Miliolina  Mcornis  var.  elegans  Williamson,  Recent  Foram.  Gt.  Britain,  1858, 
p.  88,  pi.  vii,  fig.  195. 

Differs  from  the  type  M.  bicornis  in  the  regular  symmetry  of  its 
chambers  and  in  the  uniform  size  and  regular  parallelism  of  the  sur- 
face grooves. 

This  striate  form  is  rarely  found  at  depths  greater  than  50  fath- 
oms. The  method  of  growth  as  shown  by  Schlumberger  is  in.  accord 
with  that  of  d’Orbigny’s  genus  Adelosina , in  which  the  megasphere  j.s 
completely  enveloped  by  the  first  chamber,  which  becomes  lenticular. 
It  then  passes  through  the  biloculine,  milioline,  triloculine,  quadriloc- 
uline,  and  quinqueloculine  stages.  Our  form  very  closely  represents 
this  quinqueloculine  form  and  the  aperture  is  in  the  end  on  a con- 
siderably lengthened  tube.  Unfortunately  we  have  but  one  broken 
specimen  of  this  interesting  species. 

Miliolina  bicornis  is  fossil  in  the  London  clay  and  the  Paris  Basin 
Eocene. 

MILIOLINA  CUVIERIANA  (d’Orbigny). 

Quinqueloculina  cuvieriana  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Cuba,  1839,  p.  164,  pi.  xi, 
figs.  19-21. 

Test  consisting  of  five  segments  with  sharp  or  subcarinate  margins 
and  smooth  unornamented  surface.  It  is  the  same  as  Q.  lamarckiana 
figured  on  the  same  plate  (figs.  14,  15).  A shallow  tropical  water 
species  particularly  known  around  the  region  of  Japan,  the  Phil- 
ippines, and  the  islands  of  the  Eastern  Archipelago.  While  it  is  one 
of  the  most  common  Miliolinse  in  the  Albatross  material,  the  number 
of  specimens  in  each  locality  is  small.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4000, 
D.  4017,  D.  4025,  H.  4555,  II.  4590,  and  H.  4694.

Triloculina  linnceana  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Cuba,  1839,  p.  153,  pi.  ix,  figs. 

11-13. 

“ Under  the  name  Triloculina  linnceana , d’Orbigny  depicts  ° a 
modification  or  variety  of  Miliolina  pulchella , which  takes  the  place 
to  a great  extent  of  the  typical  form  in  tropical  seas.  It  differs  from 
Miliolina  pulchella  in  its  comparatively  thin  and  outspread  contour, 
which  sometimes  approaches  that  of  S 'piroloculina,  the  costae  being 
few,  thick,  and  well  marked.  A nearly  identical  form  is  described  in 
the  Vienna  Basin  memoir  with  the  name  Quinqueloculina  josephina.”  h 
Limited  to  shallow  tropical  waters.  Occurs  at  Stations  D.  4174  and 
H.  4568. 

MILIOLINA  OBLONGA  (Montagu). 


Vermiculum  oblonga  Montagu,  Test.  Britain,  1803,  p.  522,  pi.  xiv,  fig.  9. 


A cosmopolitan  species  known  from  all  areas  and  depths,  but  best 
developed  in  shallow  temperate  seas.  Found  at  Station  D.  4000  only. 


MILIOLINA  PARKERI  Brady. 

Miliolina  parkeri  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s.,  1881, 
p.  46. 

Surface  of  the  segments  crenulated  and  sharply  angled  at  their 
margins. 

With  the  exception  of  forms  from  the  Red  Sea  this  species  is  a coral 
reef  form  in  the  tropical  region  of  the  Pacific  Ocean.  Occurs  at 
Stations  D.  4000,  FL  4566,  and  H.  4694.

Britain,  1858,  p.  86,  pi.  vn,  figs.  188,  189'. 

Resembling  the  typical  form  but  more  complanate  and  with 
broader,  shorter  segments,  frequently  emarginate  at  their  umbilical 
borders  and  possessing  transverse  ridges  of  growth  which  are  lacking 
in  the  typical  species.  Common  along  the  English  coast  in  shell 
sand.  Occurs  in  every  latitude  and  is  known  from  all  depths.  Geo- 
logically its  history  dates  from  the  early  Eocene.  Not  very  common, 
but  present  at  Stations  D.  4017  and  H.  4694. 

MILIOLINA  TRICARINATA  (d’Orbigny). 

Triloculina  tricarinata  b’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  1826,  p.  290,  No.  7, 
modele,  No.  94. 

Tricarinate  miliolince  are  not  at  all  rare,  but  this  species  is  more 
widely  distributed  than  its  related  form  M.  trigonula.  The  carinate 
feature  is  in  M.  tricarinata  limited  to  the  peripheral  portion,  the 
intervening  portion  being  more  or  less  gibbous,  but  the  species  is  sub- 
ject to  great  variation  and  is  perhaps  easily  confused  with  Miliolina 
trigonula.  While  having  an  almost  unlimited  geographical  distribu- 
tion the  species  is  also  of  great  bathymetric  range  and  is  known  from 
a few  fathoms  down  to  2,350  fathoms.  As  a fossil,  it  is  recorded 
from  the  early  Tertiary.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4025,  D. 
4174,  and  H.  4694.

Anim.  sans  Vert.,  VII,  No.  2,  1822,  p.  612. 

Test  regular  triloculine,  with  smooth  subspherical  or  elongate 
chambers  and  nearly  circular  end  view.  Distinguished  from  M. 
tricarinata  by  a difference  in  the  roundness  or  angularity  of  the 
chambers.  Of  wide  distribution  in  shoal  waters,  and  more  frequent 
in  the  temperate  than  in  tropical  regions.  Absent  in  cold  northern 
waters;  found  chiefly  in  temperate  in-shore  sands.  Beyond  100 
fathoms  the  form  is  said  to  be  replaced  by  Miliolina  tricarinata. 
Geological  history,  Tertiary  to  recent.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4000,

Vertebralina  insignis  Brady,  dial.  Kept.,  IX,  1884,  p.  187,  pi.  xii,  figs.  9-11. 

This  rare  species  is  known  from  off  the  Friendly  Islands,  18 
fathoms,  in  Torres  Strait,  155  fathoms,  and  off  the  West  Indies,  390 
fathoms.  Occurs  at  Station  H.  4694  at  a depth  of  865  fathoms,  which 
is  its  deepest  recorded  occurrence. 

Subfamily  PENEROPLIDIN^S. 

Genus  CORNUSPIRA. 

CORNUSPIRA  FOLIACEA  (Philippi). 

Orbis  foliaceus  Philippi,  Enum.  Moll.  Sicil.,  II,  1844,  p.  147,  pi.  xxiv,  fig.  26. 

Test  planospiral,  with  thin,  flat,  rapidly  widening  whorls,  and 
while  the  surface  has  no  decoration  there  are  frequently  curved 
transverse  lines  of  growth  as  in  many  of  the  Gasteropoda.  An  allied 
form  with  carinate  margin  is  Cornuspira  carinata  (Costa). 

Rare  in  Scandinavian  waters  and  Greenland  (Goes),  not  uncom- 
mon in  the  Pacific,  and  ranging  from  shallow  depths  down  to  about 
1,500  fathoms.  Professor  Brady  states  that  the  best  specimens  come 
from  depths  between  300  and  600  fathoms. 

Present  in  the  Eocene  and  later  Tertiary.  Recognized  at  Station 
D.  4017  only,  but  is  not  common. 

CORNUSPIRA  INVOLVENS  Reuss. 

Cornuspira  involvens  Reuss,  Sitzungb.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  XLVIII,  1863 
(1864),  Pt.  1,  p.  39,  pi.  i,  fig.  2. 

Recognized  by  its  rounded  tubular  whorls,  which  closely  embrace 
each  other  and  yet  allow  each  whorl  to  be  seen  on  either  surface. 

Geological  history  from  Tertiary  to  recent.  Has  probably  been 
confused  with  Jurassic  and  Cretaceous  Ammodisci,  which  it  resem- 
bles. Dr.  A.  Goes  records  the  form  in  the  Arctic  and  Norwegian 
waters  at  depths  ranging  from  30  to  180  meters.  A shallow  water 
cosmopolitan  species.  Observed  at  Stations  D.  4017  and  D.  4174. 

Genus  PENEROPLIS. 

PENEROPLIS  PERTUSUS  (Forskal). 

'Nautilus  pertusus  Forskal,  Descr.  Anim.,  1775,  No.  65,  p.  125. 

The  genus  Peneroplis , like  Orbiculina , represents  great  variety  of 
form  and  degree  of  compression  and  elongation  of  chambers  without 
altering  the  segment  arrangement  or  method  of  growth.  For  this 
reason  and  because  of  the  transitional  forms,  it  becomes  necessary  to 
separate  the  genus  into  several  distinct  types  around  which  must

cluster  the  larger  varieties  of  the  type.  The  test  of  the  genus  Pene- 
roplis is  a planospiral,  crozier-shaped,  imperforate  calcareous  (por- 
cellaneous) shell,  and  bilaterally  symmetrical.  An  elaborate  treatment 
of  the  genus  is  given  by  Dr.  W.  B.  Carpenter  in  the  Introduction  to 
the  Study  of  the  Foraminifera  (pp.  84-92,  pi.  vii) . The  surface  of  the 
shell  is  beautifully  marked  by  transverse  striae  closely  set  and  covering 
the  entire  surface,  as  a rule,  but  there  are  also  occasional  pits  in  the 
shell  substance  which  resemble  pores,  though  the  shell  is  nevertheless 
imperforate.  The  genus  can  be  well  subdivided  into  the  following 
types : 

A.  Peneroplis  pertusus  (Forskal).  Nautiloid  moderately  com- 
pressed, involute  shell  with  dendritic  aperture. 

B.  Peneroplis  planatus  (Fichtel  and  Moll).  Broad  complanate 
forms,  striated  surface  and  with  a single  row  of  pores  on  the  septal 
face. 

C.  Peneroplis  arietinus  (Batsch).  Chambers  at  first  involute, 
later  nodosarian  and  numerous.  Aperture  a series  of  pores  on  the 
compressed  anterior  margin. 

D.  Peneroplis  cylindraceus  (Lamarck).  Test  less  compressed  than 
in  P.  arietinus  and  more  nearly  nodosarian. 

*E.  Peneroplis  lituus  (Gmelin).  Chambers  few,  cylindrical,  no- 
dosarian, but  slightly  irregular  and  of  uneven  size. 

F.  Peneroplis  carinatus  d’Orbigny.  Near  variety  P.  pertusus  but 
more  involute  and  with  sharp  periphery  and  less  decorated  surface. 

G.  Peneroplis  loevigatus.  Karrer.  This  is  the  most  compressed 
type,  somewhat  resembling  Operculina  adunca , and  the  latter  whorls 
embrace  nearly  two-thirds  of  the  shell. 

I find  two  types  of  the  above  genus,  P.  pertusus  and  P.  planatus , 
the  former  occurring  at  Station  4017,  the  latter  at  Station  4694. 

PENEROPLIS  PERTUSUS  var.  PLANATUS  (Fichtel  and  Moll). 

Rautilus  planatus  Fichtel  and  Moll,  Test.  Microsc.,  1803,  p.  91,  pi.  xvi, 
figs.  1 d,  c,  /. 

Found  only  at  Station  H.  4694  and  is  rare.  The  genus  is  usually 
found  at  less  than  30  fathoms.  Tropical  and  subtropical  waters  at 
many  localities.  Its  geological  history  dates  from  the  lower  Tertiary 
(Eocene  of  Paris  Basin,  etc.). 

Genus  ORBICULINA. 

ORBICULINA  ADUNCA  (Fichtel  and  Moll). 

nautilus  orMculus  Fichtel  and  Moll,  Test.  Microsc.,  1803,  p.  112,  pi.  xxi. 

A tropical  species  usually  in  shoal  waters.  Its  earliest  appearance 
is  in  the  early  Tertiary.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4000  and  H.  4694.

ORBITOLITES  COMPLANATA  Lamarck. 

Orbitolites  complanata  Lamarck,  Syst.  Aiiirn.  sans  Vert.,  1801,  p.  376. 

An  inhabitant  of  shallow  tropical  waters,  occasionally  so  abun- 
dant that  it  becomes  an  important  factor  in  the  building  of  tropical 
coral  islands.  Occurs  rather  sparingly  at  Stations  D.  4000,  II.  4476, 
and  H.  4566. 

ORBITOLITES  MARGINALIS  (Lamarck). 

Orbulites  marginalis  Lamarck,  Anim.  sans  Vert.,  II,  No.  1,  1816,  p.  196. 

Not  quite  so  widely  diffused  as  the  species  Orbitolites  complanata. :, 
it  is  extensively  found  in  warmer  seas,  and  it  is  said  by  Doctor  Car- 
penter to  be  more  abundant  where  Orbiculina  is  rare,  and  the  oppo- 
site. It  obtained  its  maximum  development  in  the  early  Tertiary, 
where  specimens  of  enormous  size  and  abundance  are  found.  Not 
very  common,  but  present  at  Stations  D,  4000,  II.  4476,  and  H.  4694.

pi.  i,  fig.  1. 

Considered  by  Professor  Brady  to  be  a starved  shallow- water 
variety  of  Reophax  scorpiurius.  Found  in  arctic  and  cold  temperate 
zones  and  with  sporadic  occurrence  in  the  Tropics  at  moderate  depths 
down  to  1,443  fathoms.  Found  at  Station  H.  4585.

Reophax  scorpiurius  Montfort,  Conchyl.  Syst.,  I,  1808,  p.  330,  83d  genre. 

This  species  has  a universal  distribution  and  bathymetric  range. 
Its  geological  history  goes  back  to  the  Oolite.  Found  at  Stations 
H.  4508,  H.  4567,  and  H.  4694,  but  not  very  common  at  any  oi  the 
three. 

Genus  HAPLOPHRAGMIUM. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  AGGLUTINANS  (d’Orbigny). 

Spirolina  agglutinans  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Foss.  Vien.,  1840,  p.  137,  pi.  vii, 
figs.  10-12. 

A cosmopolitan  species  and  with  correspondingly  wide  distribution 
in  depth.  Obtained  only  from  Station  D.  4174. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  CANARIENSE  (d’Orbigny). 

Nonionina  canariensis  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Canaries,  1839,  p.  128,  pi.  ii, 
figs.  33,  34, 

Known  from  all  oceans  and  at  all  depths.  Found  as  a fossil  but 
not  earlier  than  the  Pleistocene.  Specimens  obtained  at  Stations  H. 
4566  and  H.  4696  are  rather  more  symmetrical  and  possess  more 
chambers  than  some  of  the  figured  types  of  the  species.  The  arena- 
ceous test,  rounded  periphery,  depressed  umbilici,  and  complanate 
character  of  the  chambers  are  sufficient  to  distinguish  this  from  allied 
forms. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  GLOBIGERINIFORME  (Parker  and  Jones). 

Lituola  nautiloidea  globigeriniformis  Parker  and  Jones,  Phil.  Trans.,  CLV, 
1865,  p.  407,  pi.  xv,  figs  46,  47. 

This  species  is  described  with  some  doubt.  There  are  only  a few 
specimens,  from  Station  4585,  which  appear  to  belong  here.  They 
do  not  possess  so  many  Globigerina-like  segments  and  these  are  not 
so  distinct,  but  the  growth  appears  trochoid  and  the  forms  are  con- 
ditionally placed  here.  Essentially  a deep-water  foraminifer  of 
universal  distribution. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  LATIDORSATUM  (Bornemann). 

Nonionina  latidorsata  Bornemann,  Zeitschr.  deutsch.  geol.  Gesell.,  VII, 
1855,  p.  339,  pi.  xvi,  figs.  4,  a,  &. 

So  abundant  in  the  north  deep  sea  explored  by  G.  O.  Sars  that  it  is 
said  to  constitute  one-fifth  of  the  entire  weight  of  the  dredged  ma- 
terial. While  of  universal  distribution  and  more  abundant  in  deep 
water,  the  form  is  also  present  in  depths  of  800  fathoms  or  less.

FORA MINIFERA  FROM  THE  HA  WAIIANISLA NDS—DAGG.  127 


Known  in  the  European  Tertiary.  In  our  dredgings  this  form,  with 
Haplophragmium  scitulum , is  the  most  common  species  of  the  genus 
and  was  found  at  Stations  H.  4502,  H.  4566,  H.  4567,  and  H.  4696. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  NANUM  Brady. 

Haplophragmium  nanum  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s., 
1881,  p.  50. 

Somewhat  similar  to  II.  canariense , but  with  the  segments  more 
distinct  and  lobulated,  and  in  its  inequilateral  development  only  upon 
the  upper  surface  are  all  the  segments  visible.  Recorded  in  the  Chal- 
lenger report  as  characteristic  of  cold  northern  and  southern  latitudes 
and  at  depths  of  from  about  50  to  near  2,000  fathoms.  Found  only 
at  Station  H.  4694. 

HAPLOPHRAGMIUM  SCITULUM  Brady. 

Haplophragmium  scitulum  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s., 
1881,  p.  50. 

Test  closely  involute,  nautiloid  with  depressed  umbilici,  arenaceous 
dark-brown  test  and  rough  exterior.  Segments  numerous,  narrow, 
straight,  but  slightly  depressed  septa.  Forms  somewhat  resembling 
Cyclammina  cancellata  occur  at  Station  4508  and  the  septal  lines  are 
not  quite  so  regular  as  in  the  type-specimens.  This  species  is  closely 
related  to  II.  latidorsatum , which  is,  however,  less  symmetrical,  and 
has  a thicker,  coarser  test  and  a more  lobulated  margin. 

Eleven  localities  for  this  species  are  reported  in  the  Challenger 
records,  eight  of  which  were  in  the  North  Atlantic,  530  to  1,445 
fathoms,  one  in  the  South  Atlantic,  one  in  the  South  Pacific,  and 
one  from  very  deep  water  in  the  North  Pacific.  Present  at  Stations 
H.  4430,  H.  4508,  H.  4585,  and  H.  4696.  Doctor  Flint  mentions  it 
from  the  west  coast  of  Cuba  and  the  west  coast  of  Patagonia,  93  to 
541  fathoms. 

Genus  CRITHIONINA. 

CRITHIONINA  PISUM  var.  HISPIDA  Flint. 

Crithionina  pisum  var.  hispida  Flint,  Recent  Foraminifera,  1899,  p.  267,  pi. 
vi,  fig.  2. 

The  genus  Crithionina  was  established  recently  by  A.  Goes  and 
made  to  include  minute  Foraminifera,  which  are  largely  constructed 
of  sponge  spicules  and  exceedingly  fine  gray  arenaeeous  matter,  and 
with  a labyrinthic  or  cavernous,  more  or  less  spherical,  chamber. 
This  is  undivided  and  the  aperture  is  indistinct  and  divided.  The 
hispid  variety  is  even  smaller  than  Crithionina  pisum  and  is  easily 
distinguished  by  its  spinous  sponge-spicule  surface.  There  is  appar- 
ently no  visible  aperture.

Kecorded  by  Dr.  J.  M.  Flint  from  Georges  Bank,  Gulf  of  Mexico, 
and  coast  of  Oregon,  at  depths  of  from  93  to  1,813  fathoms.  Found 
at  Stations  H.  4440  and  H.  4502. 

Genus  HAPLOSTICHE. 

HAPLOSTICHE  SOLDANII  (Jones  and  Parker). 

Lituola  soldanii  Jones  and  Parker,  Quart.  Journ.  Geol.  Soc.,  XVI,  No.  184, 
1860,  p.  307. 

Test  stoutly  built,  nodosarian-like  and  of  arenaceous  coarse  ma- 
terial. The  internal  subdivisions  of  the  chambers  do  not  appear  on 
the  surface.  Without  sectioning  the  aperture  is  the  only  means  of 
distinguishing  this  species  from  Clavulina  cylindrical  as  stated  under 
the  description  of  that  species. 

This  is  the  only  living  representative  of  the  genus  and  is  best  de- 
veloped in  the  warm  waters  of  the  West  Indies  at  shoal  depths.  It 
is  also  found  in  the  Gulf  of  Mexico,  196  and  210  fathoms  (Flint), 
and  around  many  islands  of  the  Pacific.  It  is  variously  recorded  in 
the  European  Tertiary.  We  find  it  only  at  Stations  D.  4000  and 
H.  4590.  * *

Of  wide  areal  distribution,  this  species  is  more  typically  developed 
in  deep  water,  often  below  1,000  fathoms.  Found  at  Station  H. 
4502,  1,302  fathoms;  Station  H.  4555,  1,398  fathoms;  Station  H.  4585,

Test  nautiloid,  biconvex,  depressed,  and  composed  of  but  fetv  cham- 
bers, usually  about  one-half  the  number  of  those  present  in  Trocham- 
mina trusillata.  It  is  much  more  rare  than  the  latter  species,  is  of  a 
dark  gray  or  brown  color,  and  there  is  no  punctation  of  the  inner 
surface  of  the  shell.  Not  before  recorded  beyond  the  Atlantic  Ocean, 
and  said  to  occur  at  depths  of  from  1,675  to  2,750  fathoms.  Found 
at  Station  H.  4590,  978  fathoms,  rare. 

Genus  WEBBINA.

Trochammina  irregularis  clavata  Jones  and  Parker,  Quart.  Journ.  Geol. 

Soc.,  XVI,  1860,  i).  304. 

This  adherent  species  was  later  described  under  the  genus  Web- 
bina.a  The  latter  is  always  adherent  on  its  lower  surface  without  a 
definite  body  wall  inclosing  the  surface  of  attachment,  while  in 
Trochammina  the  tube  is  complete  and  walled  on  all  sides.  The  spe- 
cies is  of  wide  areal  distribution  and  of  almost  unlimited  bathymetric 
range.  Several  examples  were  found  at  Stations  I).  4000,  D.  4174, 
H.  4476,  H.  4566,  H.  4590,  and  H.  4696.

CY  CLAM  MINA  CANCELLATA  Brady. 

Cyclammina  cancellata  Brady,  in  Norman,  Proc.  Roy.  Soc.,  XXV,  1876, 
I).  214. 

The  genus  Cyclammina , established  by  Brady  in  1876,  includes 
the  entirely  arenaceous,  large,  compressed,  convoluted  Foraminifera 
whose  walls  are  finely  cancellated.  These  are  often  so  highly  devel- 
oped that  the  inner  portion  of  the  chambers  is  greatly  reduced.  Ex- 
ternally the  surface  is  smooth  and  the  aperture  either  a series  of  pores 
on  the  septal  face  or  an  arched  fissure  at  the  inner  margin  of  the  final 
segment.  The  periphery  jn  C.  cancellata  is  rounded.  I have  identi- 
fied this  species  in  the  New  Jersey  Miocene  but  am  not  aware  of  its 
further  occurrence  in  the  fossil  state.  In  existing  oceans  it  is  of  very 
great  bathymetric  range  (75  to  2,900  fathoms)  and  has  a wide  geo- 
graphical distribution.  It  is  present  at  Stations  D.  4174  and  H.  4508, 
at  the  latter  with  JIaplophragmium  scitulum , which  the  above  some- 
what resembles.

This  species  was  established  by  Prady  to  include  very  coarsely 
arenaceous  dark  colored  Textularia?  characterized  by  oblong,  com- 
pressed form  composed  of  few  segments.  Obtained  by  the  Challenger 
from  five  stations  in  the  North  Atlantic,  390  to  530  fathoms.;  three 
in  the  South  Atlantic,  350  to  1,435  fathoms;  and  two  in  the  South 
Pacific,  175  and  210  fathoms.  Found  at  Station  I).  4000,  depth  104

The  depths  recorded  in  the  Challenger  report  for  this  species  vary 
from  shore  sand  at  Melbourne  to  255  fathoms  off  the  Fiji  Islands. 
Our  specimen  comes  from  Station  D.  4017,  at  a depth  of  305  fathoms. 
The  species  is  not  known  in  the  fossil  state,  and  its  present  distribu-

Textularia  quadrilatera  Schwager,  Novara-Exped?,  Geol.  Theil,  II,  188G, 
p.  253,  pi.  vii,  fig.  103. 

Test,  long,  slender,  compressed,  tapering,  generally  acuminate  and 
quadrilateral.  Typical  specimens  come  from  Tahiti  at  420  fathoms, 
but  the  form  is  known  also  from  a small  number  of  localities  in  the 
South  Atlantic  and  Pacific  oceans.  This  form  is  rare  at  Stations

One  of  the  most  abundant  of  all  the  Texularice  whether  recent  or 
fossil,  and  while  chiefly  affecting  shallow  waters  of  temperate  seas 
is  known  at  depths  of  near  2,700  fahtoms.  Not  rare  at  Stations  I).

Pacific  were  in  depths  of  95,  2,050,  and  2,900  fathoms  respectively. 
The  species  is  therefore  a deep-water  form.  It  is  not  known  as  a 
fossil.  Pare  at  Station  H.  4567,  depth  1,307  fathoms. 

VERNEUILINA  SPINULOSA  Reuss. 

Verneuilina  spinulosa  Reuss,  Denkschr.  Akad.  AViss.  Wien,  I,  1849,  p.  347 
pi.  xl vn,  figs.  12  a-c. 

This  species,  known  first  from  the  Cretaceous  chalk,  is  best  de- 
veloped in  tropical  and  subtropical  shallow  waters.  Its  bathymetric 
range,  however,  is  from  a few  fathoms  down  to  2,300.  Examples  of 
this  interesting  foraminifer  were  at  Stations  D.  4017,  D.  4025,  H. 
4508,  H.  4694,  and  H.  4696. 

Genus  BIGENERINA. 

BIGENERINA  ARENACEA  Bagg,  new  species. 

Test  very  large,  sometimes  measuring  nearly  an  eighth  of  an  inch 
in  length,  strongly  compressed  and  complanate,  built  of  coarse  arena- 
ceous and  glauconitic  material  of  a preA^ailing  gray  color. 

The  segments  are  at  first  biserial,  later  nodosarian.  There  are  four 
or  five  of  these  uniserial  segments  and  they  comprise  about  one-half 
the  shell  in  length.  The  test  is  symmetrically  developed  Avith  nearly 
straight  even  sides  obtusely  rounded  and  Avith  the  aboral  end  broadly 
rounded,  the  entire  form  resembling  in  a general  way  Bigenerina 
pennatula  (Batsch),  but  lacking  the  angular  keeled  margin  and  also 
being  somewhat  more  compressed.  The  segmentation  is  regular, 
much  more  regular  than  in  Bigeneria  capreolus  (d’Orbigny),  and  in 
the  uniserial  portion  is  as  symmetrical  as  in  typical  Frondicularia 
types.  The  chambers  are  narrow  and  even,  separated  by  broad 
thick  slightly  raised  septa  which  are  curved  or  arched  upward  at  the 
center  and  at  the  oral  end  form  a wedge-shaped  extremity.  The 
aperture  is  a median,  oval,  and  narrow  slit.  The  best  specimens  of 
this  large  arenaceous  species  were  from  stations  betAveen  D.  3900  and 
I).  4000.  (See  Plate  V,  figs.  4-6.) 

The  type  is  Cat.  No.  8196,  U.S.N.M.,  from  hydrographic  Sta- 
tion 4508,  Albatross.  I also  recognize  the  species  at  Stations  D.  4174 
and  H.  4566. 

Genus  PAVONINA. 

PAVONINA  FLAB  ELLI  FORM  IS  d’Orbigny. 

Pavonina  flabelliformis  d'Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  1,  1826,  p.  260, 
pi.  x,  figs.  10,  11,  modele  No.  56. 

Pavonina  is  an  interesting  unusual  genus  represented  by  a single 
species.  The  early  chambers  are  small  and  textularian  and  later  be- 
come uniserial  and  unfolded,  forming  a fan-like  test.  The  aperture 


no,  1603.  FORAMINIFERA  FROM  THE  HA  WAIIAN ISLANDS— B AGO.

is  porous.  This  beautiful  form  is  an  inhabitant  of  rather  shallow 
water  and  has  been  obtained  in  the  West  Indies,  Torres  Strait,  Malay 
Archipelago,  Mauritius,  Ceylon,  Admiralty  Islands,  Cocos  Island, 
coast  of  Korea,  and  the  Honolulu  coral  reefs.  Found  only  at  Sta- 
tion D.  4174.  Not  known  in  the  fossil  condition. 

Genus  GAUDRYINA. 

GAUDRYINA  FILIFORMIS  Berthelin. 

Gaudryina  filiformis  Berthelin,  Mem.  See.  Geol.  France,  ser.  3,  I,  No.  5, 
1880,  p.  25,  pi.  i,  fig.  8. 

With  its  limited  number  of  triserial  segments  and  its  long  textu- 
larian  development,  the  above  species  might  easily  be  mistaken  for 
one  of  the  Textularia.  It  was  dredged  by  the  Challenger  at  four 
stations  at  moderate  depths  and  from  both  Atlantic  and  Pacific 
oceans.  The  fossil  forms  described  by  Berthelin  were  from  the  Gault 
of  northern  France.  Not  common  at  Station  H.  4568. 

GAUDRYINA  PUPOIDES  d’Orbigny. 

Gaudryina  pupoides  d’Orbigny,  Mem.  Soc.  Geol.  France,  IV,  1840,  p.  44, 
pi.  iv,  figs.  22-24. 

This  common  deep-water  variety  is  a frequent  Cretaceous  fossil 
and  is  not  rare  in  some  Eocene  and  later  Tertiary  deposits.  Found 
at  Stations  H.  4430,  H.  4555,  H.  4568,  and  H.  4571. 

GAUDRYINA  QUADRANGULARIS  Bagg,  new  species. 

The  test  is  very  large,  measuring  about  one-eighth  inch  in  length, 
sharply  tapering  to  a trihedral  distal  end.  The  oral  extremity  is 
quadrangular  in  outline,  resulting  from  compression  upon  two  sides, 
and  this  compression  does  not  correspond  with  any  of  the  triangular 
portion  below.  The  shell  substance  is  unusually  coarse  and  the  sur- 
face very  rough.  The  oral  end  is  abruptly  truncated  and  is  sunken 
in  the  center  to  the  straight  slit-like  aperture  somewhat  protected 
by  a marginal  thickening  and  slightly  notched.  (See  Plate  V,  fig.  1.) 

The  type  is  Cat.  No.  8198,  U.S.N.M.,  Station  D.  4000.  It  is  rare. 

Genus  CLAVULI  NA. 

CLAVULINA  ANGULARIS  d’Orbigny. 

Glavulina  dngularis  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  2,  1826,  p.  268, 

pi.  xii,  fig.  7. 

Test  long,  nodosarian,  triangular  with  arched  septal  depressions. 
The  triserial  portion  of  the  test  is  confined  to  the  lowest  portion  of 
the  shell  and  does  not  much  enlarge  the  distal  end  as  in  Clavulina

parisiensis.  Limited  to  shore  sands  and  off-shore  deposits  in  both 
Atlantic  and  Pacific  oceans.  Known  from  the  lower  Tertiary  de- 
posits of  Europe.  Identified  in  material  obtained  at  Station  D.  4017. 

CLAVULINA  CYLINDRICA  Hantken. 

Clavulina  cylindrica  Hantken,  Mittheil.  Jahrb.  ung.  geol.  Anstalt,  IV, 
1875,  p.  18,  pi.  i,  fig.  8. 

With  Haplostiche  soldanii , which  it  resembles,  this  species  is 
found  in  the  coral  sands  of  tropical  waters.  The  two  are  separable 
by  their  difference  in  aperture,  Clavulina  cylindrica  always  having  a 
valvular  opening,  while  the  other  is  always  simple  or  perforate. 
Abundant  in  the  Clavulina-szaboi  strata  of  Hungary  and  also  from 
the  Tertiary  of  Italy.  Rather  rare  in  the  South  Atlantic,  less  so  in 
the  North  Atlantic,  and  variously  recorded  in  shoal  waters  of  the 
South  Pacific.  Rare  in  the  Globigerina  ooze  of  Station  D.  4000. 

Subfamily  BULIMINmAl. 

Genus  BULIMINA. 

BULIMINA  AFFINIS  d’Orbigny. 

Bulimina  affinis  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Cuba,  1839,  p.  109,  pi.  ii,  figs.  25,  26. 

Equivalent  probably  to  Reuss’s  Bulimina  ovulum , described  in 
Cretaceous  deposits  and  present  in  the  North  and  South  Pacific 
oceans  of  to-day.  It  is  separated  from  B.  ovata , which  it  closely  re- 
sembles, only  by  its  acute  apical  aboral  extremity.  Some  specimens 
obtained  from  Stations  D.  4017,  D.  4025,  and  D.  4174. 

D'Orbigny  obtained  his  types  from  the  shore  sands  of  Cuba.  Dis- 
tribution much  more  limited,  however,  than  that  of  the  types  of  B. 
ovata  and  B.  pupoides , which  it  resembles. 

BULIMINA  ACULEATA  d’Orbigny. 

Bulimina  aculeata  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  7,  1826,  p.  269. 

With  the  smooth  upper  portion  of  the  test  and  the  lower  rough 
spinous  portion,  the  above  is  one  of  the  peculiar  surface  ornamenta- 
tion forms  found  among  the  Buliminse.  The  spines  often  project 
from  the  edges  of  the  chambers  as  in  B.  marginata , but  in  the  former 
they  are  never  lengthened  into  spines. 

Abundant  in  the  North  Atlantic  and  South  Pacific  and  its 
bathymetric  range  extends  from  shallow  depths  down  to  2,740 
fathoms. 

It  has  been  recognized  in  the  glacial  clays  of  Norway.  Present 
at  Station  H.  4567  only.

. Test  triserial,  short,  strongly  built,  with  well-defined  ribs  which 
extend  to  the  lower  margin  of  the  ultimate  chamber.  Said  to  affect 
moderately  deep  water;  Professor  Brady  reports  it  as  abundant  in 
the  North  Atlantic,  rare  in  the  South  Atlantic,  and  common  in  the 
South  Pacific.  Not  recorded  from  the  North  Pacific.  Ranges  from 
less  than  100  down  to  over  2,000  fathoms.  Occurs  at  Station  H. 
4568,  where  it  is  not  rare,  and  at  Station  H.  4585. 

BULIMINA  CONTRARIA  (Reuss). 

Rotalina  contraria  Reuss,  Zeitschr.  dentsch.  geol.  Gesell.,  Ill,  1851,  p.  76, 
pi.  v,  fig.  37. 

It  is  no  wonder  that  this  little  form  has  been  described  under  va- 
rious genera — such  as  Ataxophragmium , Pulvinulina , and  Cassidu- 
lina — for  it  possesses  marked  similarity  of  growth  to  all  the  above. 
It  has,  however,  been  rightly  placed  among  the  Bulimince , and  its 
aperture  alone  justifies  this  as  well  as  its  buliminine  method  of 
growth. 

Most  common  in  shoal  waters  of  the  South  Pacific,  but  also  known 
in  the  North  Pacific  and  the  North  Atlantic.  Present  at  Stations 
D.  4000,  H.  4430,  and  H.  4555.  Described  among  the  fossil  Foram- 
inifera  of  the  Oligocene  (Septaria  clay)  of  Hermsdorf  and  the 
Miocene  of  Kostej,  in  the  Banat.

An  intermediate  type  between  the  costate  Bulimina  buchiana  and 
the  spinous  B.  aculeata  and  having  a distribution  similar  to  the 
former,  but  less  common.  It  is  widely  distributed  in  the  South 
Pacific  and  is  present  in  waters  of  from  less  than  100  to  over  2,400 
fathoms.  We  note  this  form  from  four  stations,  namely,  H.  4566, 
H.  4567,  H.  4568,  and  H.  4571.  Reported  in  the  Septaria  clays  of 
Germany  and  the  later  Tertiary  of  Italy.

spire.  These  forms  are  widely  distributed  in  existing  oceans  and 
B.  ovata  is  common  in  shallow  waters  of  the  British  coast.  It  is 
present  in  waters  of  the  Pacific  at  depths  ranging  from  a few  up  to 
580  fathoms.  Its  geological  history  begins  with  the  Eocene.  Ob- 
tained at  Stations  D.  4017,  D.  4025,  H.  4508,  and  H.  4568.

Similar  to  above,  but  with  more  inflation  and  separation  of  seg- 
ments. With  its  congeners  it  is  frequently  described  from  the 
Tertiary  beds  of  Europe  and  its  present  distribution  is  cosmopolitan. 
Found  at  Stations  D.  4025  and  H.  4174. 

BULIMINA  WILLI AMSONI ANA  Brady. 

Bulimina  william soniana  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s., 
1881,  ii.  56. 

The  tests  of  Bulimina  williams  oniana  is  a cylindrical  twisted  spire 
with  strong  costep  running  the  entire  length  of  the  shell.  The  anterior 
end  is  obliquely  truncated  and  the  aperture  central.  Limited  to  shoal 
South  Pacific  waters.  Found  at  Station  H.  4694  only.

Not  rare  in  the  North  Atlantic;  found  in  the  South  Atlantic  more 
rarely;  also  in  the  North  and  South  Pacific  and  in  the  Red  Sea  and 
Mediterranean.  It  is  frequently  with  the  related  species  Virgulina 
subsquamosa.  Ranges  in  depth  from  30  to  3,000  fathoms.  Found  at 
Stations  D.  4025,  H.  4430,  H.  4555,  II.  4566,  H.  4568,  H.  4571,  H.

xv,  figs.  1,  a,  1). 

This  neatly  tapering,  striate  Bolivina , with  or  without  its  spinous 
aboral  end,  is  cosmopolitan,  and  we  found  it  at  Stations  D.  4174, 
H.  4440,  H.  4502,  H.  4508,  H.  4555,  H.  4567,  H.  4571,  H.  4585,  and 
H.  4696. 

Best  developed  types  come  from  the  North  Atlantic  Ocean  at 
depths  of  a few  fathoms  down  to  1,630  fathoms.  Professor  Brady 
records  the  species  from  off  the  Philippines  at  95  fathoms,  off  the 
south  coast  of  Japan  at  15  fathoms,  and  the  La  Plata  River,  South 
America,  at  18  fathoms.  It  occurs  as  a fossil  in  the  Tertiary  beds  of 
the  island  of  Ischia. 

BOLIVINA  DILATATA  Reuss. 

Bolivina  dilatata  Reuss,  Denksclir.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  I,  1849,  p.  381,  pi. 
xlviii,  fig.  15. 

The  test  of  Bolivina  dilatata  is  broad,  depressed,  composed  of 
numerous  long  narrow  chambers  and  possessing  an  acute  periphery. 

Prof.  H.  B.  Brady  states  that  the  species  is  confined  to  the  North 
Atlantic,  but  we  find  it  present,  and  in  some  cases  abundant,  at  nearly 
every  station  studied.  These  are : D.  4017,  D.  4025,  D.  4174,  H.  4430, 
H.  4502,  H.  4508,  H.  4555,  H.  4568,  H.  4571,  H.  4694,  and  H.  4696. 
The  average  depth  is  below  400  fathoms.  The  geological  occurrence 
dates  from  the  Cretaceous.

Test  depressed  and  nearly  equally  convex  on  each  surface,  con- 
sisting of  numerous  broad  inflated  segments  arranged  alternately  and 
provided  at  their  margin  with  a delicate  keel.  The  surface  is  usually 
faintly  striate.  Probably  limited  in  distribution  to  islands  of  the 
Pacific.  Present  at  Station  D.  4017,  fine  specimens  at  H.  4440,  also 
found  at  H.  4555  and  H.  4585.  The  depths  at  which  the  form  is 
recorded  vary  from  130  to  800  fathoms.  Not  recorded  as  a fossil.

Bolivina  karreriana  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Mjcrosc.  Sc*i.,  XXI,  n.  s.,  1881, 
p.  58. 

This  interesting  little  species  is  said  to  be  abundant  in  the  waters 
south  of  Japan,  and  it  is  not  uncommon  in  the  South  Pacific.  Found 
only  at  Station  H.  4567,  where  it  was  quite  rare. 

BOLIVINA  LIMBATA  Brady. 

Bolivina  limbata  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s.,  1881,  p.  57. 

“ The  twisted  varieties  of  Bolivina  with  nearly  even  margins  and 
limbate  sutures,  on  which  this  species  has  been  founded,  affect  the 
comparatively  shallow  water  of  tropical  seas.  They  are  abundant 
south  of  the  island  of  Papua,  occurring  at  almost  every  station  in  its 
immediate  vicinity  at  which  the  depth  does  not  exceed  200  fathoms. 
The  same  forms  occur  off  the  Sandwich  Islands,  40  fathoms;  in 
Hongkong  Harbor,  7 fathoms;  on  the  south  shores  of  Japan,  15 
fathoms;  off  the  Fiji  Islands,  12  fathoms;  on  the  Australian  coral 
reefs,  14  to  17  fathoms;  in  the  shore  sands  of  Madagascar;  off 
Ascension  Island,  7 fathoms;  and  off  the  Cape  de  Yerde  Islands, 
11  fathoms.”®

Test  moderately  compressed,  with  sinuous  or,  as  it  were,  plicate 
septal  lines,  rough  surface,  as  if  arenaceous,  pores  not  very  distinct, 
and  shell  opaque  in  transmitted  light.  Well  figured  by  Goes.& 
Found  only  at  Station  H.  4567.

BOLIVINA  ROBUSTA  Brady. 

Bolivina  robusta  BHady,  Quart.  Jouru.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XXI,  n.  s.,  1881,  p.  57. 

Thirteen  of  the  twenty- two  localities  given  in  the  Challenger  re- 
port, where  the  above  species  is  found,  were  in  the  South  Pacific. 
Abundant  at  some  stations  and  present  at  D.  4025,  II.  4555,  H.  4566, 
H.  4568,  H.  4571,  and  H.  4585.  The  species  is  generally  confined 
to  shallow  waters,  but  in  one  instance  it  was  obtained  at  1,900  fathoms 
in  the  South  Atlantic. 

A.  Goes  considers  this  form  only  a variety  of  B.  dilatata , but  I 
believe  it  should  be  regarded  as  a distinct  species. 

BOLIVINA  SEMI-ALATA  Bagg,  new  species. 

The  nearest  approach  to  this  Foraminifer  of  which  the  writer  has 
knowledge  is  Bolivina  hantkeniana.  The  forms  we  have,  however, 
are  extremely  narrow  and  stoutly  built,  with  numerous  chambers 
extending  to  nearly  one-half  the  length  of  the  shell.  The  ultimate 
chambers  are  exceedingly  broadly  expanded  and  widely  keeled,  the 
flange  extending  even  over  and  around  the  aperture.  The  lower 
end  is  acuminate.  Two  of  these  types  were  observed  at  Station  IT. 
4555.  The  shell  is  large  for  the  genus  Bolivina.  (See  Plate  V,  fig.  3.)

Bolivina  textilarioides  Reuss,  Sitzungsber.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  XLVI,  1862,

More  important  from  the  fossil  standpoint  than  any  Bolivina 
unless  perhaps  B.  punctata , and  widely  represented  in  existing  seas. 
Its  bathymetric  range  is  also  very  extensive,  but  it  is  best  developed 
on  shallow  bottoms.  It  is  one  of  the  best  known  Cretaceous  Boli- 
vinas.  Found  at  Stations  H.  4017,  fine  examples  at  H.  4025,  also 
present  at  H.  4430,  H.  4440,  H.  4508,  H.  4566,  H.  4568,  H.  4585,

Synonymous  with  Cassidulina  oblong  a Reuss.  Characterized  by 
its  obtuse  periphery,  oval  outline,  and  small  number  of  short  inflated 
segments,  which  distinguishes  the  species  from  C.  laevigata. 

Common  over  wide  areas  in  the  North  Atlantic  and  at  depths  as 
great  as  2,760  fathoms.  A long  list  of  localities  given  by  Professor

Brady  in  the  Challenger  report  includes  numerous  localities  in  the 
North  and  South  Pacific  and  the  South  Atlantic,  and  the  form  is 
present  in  the  Mediterranean.  Its  geological  history  dates  from  the 
Miocene.  Found  by  the  Albatross  at  Stations  H.  4440  and  H.  4694.

“ Test  subglobular,  somewhat  compressed  on  the  two  lateral  faces, 
inequilateral;  segments  few,  slightly  inflated;  alternation  irregular. 
Aperture  an  oblique  or  nearly  erect  loop-like  slit  on  the  face  of  the 
projecting  terminal  segment.” 0 Essentially  a deep-water  species, 
the  above  is  known  from  all  the  large  oceans,  but  the  localities  are 
not  very  numerous.  Found  at  three  Albatross  stations,  namely,  H. 
4430,  H.  4571,  and  H.  4585. 

Genus  EHRENBERGINA. 

EHRENBERGINA  SERRATA  Reuss. 

Ehrenbergina  serrata  Reuss,  Denkschrift,  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  I,  1849,  p. 

377,  pi.  xlviii,  figs.  7 a-c. 

The  genus  Ehrenbergina  is  closely  related  to  C assidulina,  but  dif- 
fers in  the  arrangement  of  the  biserial  chambers  and  less  inrolled 
growth.  Cassidulina  has  the  segments  both  biserial  and  convolute, 
and  resembles  a bolivine  shell  longitudinally  folded  and  then  rolled 
in  this  suture  from  end  to  end  and  possessing  a bulimine  aperture. 
The  typical  species  of  Ehrenbergina  are  longer  than  Cassidulina  and 
the  margins  are  frequently  serrate  or  spinous. 

Living  representatives  of  the  genus  belong  to  southern  oceans,  and 
the  bathymetric  range  is  from  several  to  over  2,000  fathoms.  This 
species  is  well  known  from  the  Miocene.  We  find  it  rather  abundant 
at  several  stations — H.  4430,  H.  4476  (common),  H.  4567,  H.  4694, 
and  H.  4696.

LAGENA  GLOBOSA  (Montagu). 

Vermiculum,  globosum  Montagu,  Test.  Britain,  1803,  p.  523. 

This  cosmopolitan  species  of  to-day  has  a long  geological  record, 
dating  possibly  from  the  Carboniferous,  but  certainly  from  the 
Oolite.  Found  only  at  Station  H.  4567. 

LAGENA  HISPIDA  Reuss. 

Lagena  hispida  Reuss,  Zeitschr.  deutscli.  Geol.  Gesell.,  X,  1858,  p.  434. 

The  test  of  Lagena  hispida  varies  in  shape,  but  always  shows  a his- 
pid surface,  which  is  its  distinguishing  characteristic.  Like  the 
preceding,  this  species  has  a long  geological  history,  dating  from  the 
Lias.  In  recent  waters  it  is  not  limited  in  distribution  or  depth,  but 
it  is  not  abundant  wherever  found.  Present  at  Station  H.  4585. 

LAGENA  LiEVIS  (Montagu). 

Vermiculum  Iceve  Montagu,  Test.  Britain,  1803,  p.  524. 

One  of  the  simplest  unornamented  unicellular  hyaline  Foraminif- 
era.  On  account  of  its  variability  in  form  it  has  been  described 
under  many  names,  a long  list  of  which  is  given  in  any  complete 
synonymy  of  the  species.  It  is  unquestionably  one  of  the  earliest 
Foraminifera  known,  occurring  in  Upper  Silurian  deposits.  Its 
distribution  and  bathymetric  range  are  unlimited  at  the  present  time. 
Obtained  only  at  Station  H.  4585.

Test  oval  elongate,  compressed  and  bordered  by  a decorated  keel 
which  surrounds  the  entire  shell.  Lagena  formosa  Schwager  has  a 
wider  similarly  striated  margin  but  the  distal  portion  is  notched  and 
wing-like.  Found  in  comparatively  shoal  waters  in  the  South  Pa- 
cific (88  to  410  fathoms),  and  of  rather  wide  geographical  distribu- 
tion elsewhere  and  at  greater  depths.  Most  frequent  in  the  Atlantic. 
Known  in  the  Miocene  of  Sicily  (Seguenza).  Obtained  from  Al- 
batross Station  H.  4566  only. 

LAGENA  MARGINATA  (Walker  and  Boys). 

Serpula  marginata  Walker  and  Boys,  Test.  Min.,  1784,  p.  2,  pi.  i.  fig.  7. 

The  above  broadly  oval,  smooth-shelled  Lagena  is  distinguished 
from  other  forms  by  its  peripheral  margin  which  is  extended  into  a 
wide  keel.  Universally  known  in  every  ocean  and  at  every  depth,

Present  in  various  localities  in  both  Atlantic  and  Pacific,  but  al- 
ways at  depths  of  less  than  150  fathoms.  Known  in  the  Miocene  of 
Italy  and  the  Post-Tertiary  of  Ireland.  Occurs  at  Albatross  Sta- 
tions H.  4440  and  II.  4694. 

LAGENA  STRIATA  (d’Orbigny). 

Oolina  striata  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Amer.  Merid.,  1839,  p.  21,  pi.  v,  fig.  12. 

An  oval,  frequently  bottle-shaped  Lagena  with  elongated  tubular 
neck  and  striate  surface.  Of  world-wide  distribution  the  form  is 
found  equally  with  Lagena  sulcata , which  it  resembles,  but  the  species 
belongs  to  shallow  waters.  It  is  present  in  the  Septaria  clays  of 
Germany  and  in  the  Miocene  elsewhere.  Noted  at  three  stations, 
H.  4566,  H.  4567,  and  H.  4694.

One  of  the  simplest  smooth  Nodosaria ? and  of  only  two  or  three  seg- 
ments. North  and  South  Atlantic,  South  Pacific,  and  elsewhere  in 
off-shore  deposits  at  less  than  100  fathoms.  Reported,  however,  at 
depths  of  over  2,000  fathoms.  Fossil  in  the  Septaria  clay  of  North 
Germany.  Station  H.  4508,  rare.

Dentalina  communis  d'Orbigny,  Mem.  Soc.  Geol.  France,  IV,  1840,  p.  13, 
pi.  i,  fig.  4. 

Smooth  surface,  oblique  septa,  and  slender  build  are  the  three 
leading  characteristics  of  the  species.  The  synonomy  as  at  present 
understood  and  published  in  monographs  on  Foraminifera  is  very 
extensive.  As  a recent  Foraminifer  it  has  a universal  distribution. 
Its  geological  history  dates  from  the  beginning  of  the  Mesozoic. 
The  most  common  nodosarian  in  the  material  examined,  and  present 
at  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4025,  II.  4430,  and  H.  4566.  The  specimens 
obtained  are  most  excellent  representatives.

Denialina  emaciata  Reuss,  Zeitschr.  deutsch.  Geol.  Gesell.,  Ill,  1851,  p.  63, 
pi.  hi,  fig.  9. 

Professor  Brady  records  the  above  variety  of  the  typical  A",  con - 
sobrina  at  depths  of  from  290  to  725  fathoms  in  the  North  Atlantic 
and  350  fathoms  in  the  South  Atlantic;  in  the  South  Pacific  from  129 
to  1,375  fathoms.  Found  in  the  Cretaceous  chalk  and  subsequent 
formations.  Occurs  at  Station  D.  4000  only. 

NODOSARIA  GUTTIFERA  (d’Orbigny). 

Dentalina  guttifera  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Foss.  Men.,  1846,  p.  49,  pi.  ii,  figs. 
11-14. 

This  species  must  not  be  confounded  with  Nodosaria  guttifera 
(Parker  and  Jones),  which  is  unquestionably  to  be  regarded  as 
Nodosaria  soluta.  In  the  form  figured  by  d’Orbigny  in  the  Vienna 
Basin  memoir  the  segments  of  Nodosaria  guttifera  are  gracefully 
oval,  bulbous  at  base  and  connected  to  the  next  succeeding  chamber 
by  a very  slender  neck.  In  Nodosaria  soluta  the  segments  are  smooth 
and  the  distal  chamber  usually  mucronate,  but  the  segments  are 
more  closely  joined  and  the  sutures  are  not  as  deeply  depressed  or 
constricted  as  in  Nodosaria  guttifera.  Fragments  only  at  Station 
H.  4566. 

NODOSARIA  LiEVIGATA  (d’Orbigny). 

Glandulina  Icevigata  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  1826,  p.  252,  pi.  x, 
figs.  1-3. 

There  appear  to  be  three  well-defined  types  of  N odosarice  belong- 
- ing  to  the  Glandulina  type,  best  represented  by  Nodosaria  laevigata 
with  its  sharp  distal  and  generally  mucronate  and  its  relatively  large 
development  of  the  ultimate  chamber;  second,  the  form  Nodosaria 
votundata , with  its  more  bluntly  rounded  nonspinous  primordial 
margin  and  slightly  greater  elongation  of  the  chambers;  and  third, 
Nodosaria  aequalis , with  its  still  greater  elongation  and  wider  seg- 
ments. Some  of  the  specimens  we  find  in  the  three  stations,  D.  4025, 
H.  4555,  and  H.  4696,  are  not  distinctly  mucronate  but  they  are  decid- 
edly pointed  at  the  distal  end  and  may  better  be  considered  as  varieties 
of  this  exceedingly  varied  species. 

The  relationship  of  the  various  types  belonging  to  this  group  are 
well  described  by  Professor  Reuss  in  his  paper  on  Von  Schlicht’s 
drawings  of  Tertiary  Foraminifera.®  The  distribution  of  the  species 
is  world-wide.  Its  bathymetric  range  is  generally  less  than  1,000 
fathoms.

FRONDICULARIA  ROBUSTA  Brady. 

Frondicularia  robusta  Brady,  Chal.  Kept.,  IX,  p,  523,  pi.  lxvi,  figs.  1,  2. 

This  is  the  only  species  of  the  genus  Frondicularia  noted  in  the 
stations  dredged  and  it  is  rare  at  Station  4508.  Professor  Brady  ob- 
served it  at  only  two  localities,  one  near  Ki  Islands,  129  fathoms, 
the  other  on  the  coral  reefs  of  the  Hawaiian  Islands,  40  fathoms. 
The  form  is  characterized  by  its  robust  test,  with  surface  strongly 
costate,  but  less  regularly  so  than  in  Nodosarice.

Rhabdogonium  minutum  Reuss,  Sitzungsber.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  LV,  1867, 
p.  84,  pi.  v,  figs.  4.  5. 

The  only  specimens  of  this  species  dredged  by  the  Challenger  came 
from  off  Ki  Islands  at  a depth  of  129  fathoms.  The  form  was  noted 
rather  frequently  at  Stations  I).  4000,  IT.  4430,  TI.  4508,  H.  4555, 
H.  4695,  and  H.  4696.

Vaginulina  tricarinatum  d'Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  4,  1826,  p. 
258,  modele,  No.  4. 

Rhabdogonium  tricarinatum  has  a wide  distribution  in  the  fossil 
world  and  is  frequently  recorded  in  Tertiary  strata.  A variety  of 
this  form  ( acutangulum ) is  known  in  the  Lower  Cretaceous.  In  liv- 
ing condition  the  form  is  met  with  in  the  North  Atlantic  from  shoal 
water  down  to  over  1,300  fathoms.  It  comes  also  from  the  Mediter- 
ranean and  the  Pacific,  and  is  very  abundant  in  the  Albatross  dredg- 
ings, being  found  in  all  stations  except  H.  4476,  H.  4502,  H.  4567, 
H.  4579,  and  IT.  4590.

A cosmopolitan  form  with  universal  distribution  and  at  all  depths 
found  sparingly.  Has  a long  geological  history  and  is  known  at 
least  as  early  as  the  Trias.  In  later  formations  it  becomes  more  fre- 
quent and  I have  recorded  it  from  the  New  Jersey  Cretaceous,  where 
it  is  by  no  means  rare.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4174  and  4567.

Genus  CRISTELLARIA. 

CRISTELLARIA  ARTICULATA  Reuss. 

Cristellaria  articulata  Reuss,  Sitzimgsb.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  XLVIII, 
1863,  p.  53,  pi.  v,  fig.  62. 

This  species  was  described  by  Reuss  in  1870  under  the  genus  Cris- 
tellaria, although  he  had  previously  placed  it  under  the  genus  Robu- 
lina , a name  now  in  disuse.  The  shell  is  stoutly  built,  thicker  and 
with  more  angular  margin  than  Cristellaria  rotulata.  There  is  also 
a smaller  number  of  segments  in  typical  specimens. 

“ Fine  examples  of  Cristellaria  articvlata  occur  in  the  dredged 
sands  from  off  Culebra  Island,  390  fathoms,  and  off  Nightingale 
Island,  Tristan  da  Cunha,  100  to  150  fathoms.  In  the  latter  locality 
the  species  is  very  abundant,  and  what  is  more  remarkable  the  species 
assume  wild-growing  forms,  such  as  are  represented  by  figs.  1-4,  pi. 
lxixT®  Found  by  the  writer  in  the  New  Jersey  Cretaceous  and  vari- 
ously recorded  in  Tertiary  deposits.  Cristellaria  are  not  abundant  in 
any  of  the  material  we  have  here  studied,  but  there  are  as  many  spe- 
cies represented  as  there  are  occurrences.  We  find  this  species  typi- 
cally developed  at  Station  IT.  4696. 

CRISTELLARIA  CALCAR  (Linnaeus). 

Nautilus  calcar  Linnaeus,  Syst.  Nat.,  12th  ed.,  No.  272,  p.  1162;  1788,  Syst. 
Nat.,  13th  (Gmelin’s)  ed.,  No.  2,  p.  3370. 

As  now  used  the  species  designated  as  Cristellaria  calcar  comprises 
those  smooth-shelled  involute  nautiloid  types  with  a spinous  periph- 
ery. The  spinous  and  flange-like  border  is  exceedingly  variable. 
Of  cosmopolitan  distribution  at  moderate  depths.  Geologically  re- 
corded in  the  Tertiary.  Present  at  Station  D.  4000. 

CRISTELLARIA  CREPIDULA  (Fichtel  and  Moll). 

Nautilus  crepidula  Fichtel  and  Moll,  Test.  Microsc.,  1803,  p.  107,  pi.  xix, 
figs.  g-i. 

The  above  may  well  serve  as  the  type  of  complanate  elongate-oval 
Cristellarice  with  segments  at  first  involute  and  later  drawn  out  and 
separated  by  straight  septa.  The  periphery  is  not  carinate,  although 
thin  and  round.  A shallow  water  form  and  more  frequent  in  temper- 
ate than  in  tropical  seas.  It  has  a long  geological  history  and  has 
been  described  by  the  author  from  the  Cretaceous  marl  of  Vincen- 
town,  New  Jersey.  It  is  the  most  common  species  of  the  genus  in  the 
19  bottles  of  Albatross  dredgings.  Occurs  at  Stations  D.  4000, 
H.  4430,  H.  4508,  and  H.  4694.

CRISTELLARIA  CULTRATA  (Montfort). 

Robulus  cultratus  Montfort,  Conchyl.  Syst.,  I,  1808,  p.  214,  54  genre. 

Distinguished  from  Cristellaria  rotulata  by  its  carinate  border. 
Occurs  with  the  latter  less  frequently  but  is  usually  in  somewhat 
deeper  water.  Cretaceous  to  Recent.  Present  at  Stations  D.  4000, 
H.  4566,  and  H.  4696. 

CRISTELLARIA  ELEGANTISSIMA  (Costa). 

Robulina  elegantissima  Costa,  Pal.  Napoli,  2,  1854,  p.  198,  pi.  xix,  fig.  4. 
Compare  ref.  in  Goes,  Kongl.,  Svenska,  Vtenskaps  Akad.  Handl.  XXV, 
No.  9,  p.  64. 

I think  I am  right  in  ascribing  to  the  above  species  the  form  de- 
scribed below.  The  test  is  much  compressed  and  rather  strongly 
striate  with  smooth  ultimate  chamber  slightly  prolonged.  The  out- 
line is  quadrangular  and  the  periphery  bluntly  rounded  without  keel. 
There  are  about  seven  chambers  visible  in  the  last  convolution,  the 
inner  ones  but  faintly  visible,  the  latter  clearly  marked  by  the  slightly 
depressed  septa.  The  aperture  is  fissurine,  somewhat  prolonged  but 
not  tubular.  The  shell  we  find  of  a grayish-white  color  and  large  for 
the  genus.  In  general  growth  the  test  strongly  resembles  Cristellaria 
crepidula , but  it  is  more  stoutly  built,  and  there  is  a difference  in  the 
method  of  extension  of  the  chambers  forming  the  last  convolution. 
There  is  a figured  form  of  Cristellaria  in  Professor  Williamson’s 
Monograph  on  the  Recent  Forminifera  of  Great  Britain  which 
roughly  resembles  the  present  form  (fig.  55,  pi.  n),  but  the  latter  is 
provided  with  a well-defined  flange.  Present  at  Station  II.  4508  of 
the  Albatross. 

Our  one  specimen  is  comparable  to  the  figured  specimen  of  A. 
Goes.®

Robulina  orbicularis  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  1826,  p.  288,  pi.  xv, 
figs.  8,  9. 

Differs  from  Cristellaria  vortex  in  its  flange,  or  keeled  border. 
West  Indies,  450  fathoms,  numerous  localities  in  the  South  Pacific, 
and  fossils  in  the  Sub-Apennine  of  Italy  and  the  Vienna  Basin

Tab.  Encycl.  et  Method,  pi.  cccclxvi,  fig.  5. 

This  species  is  the  type  of  the  group  and  is  probably  the  most 
generally  distributed  and  at  greater  variety  of  depths  than  any  form 
of  the  genus.  Its  geological  history  is  also  long  and  dates  from  the 
Upper  Trias  of  Derbyshire,  England.  Not  uncommon  at  Station 
D.  4000  and  present  at  H.  4430.

Chambers  very  long  and  narrow  and  separated  by  exceedingly 
curved  septa,  which  sweep  backwards  a long  portion  of  the  shell. 
Test  moderately  vaulted  and  umbonate.  Mentioned  by  Brady  from 
four  stations  in  the  South  Pacific,  125  to  420  fathoms,  and  off  Ber- 
muda, in  North  Atlantic,  435  fathoms.  Parker  and  Jones  record  the 
species  in  the  Mediterranean,  90  to  360  fathoms.  Flint  mentions  it 
from  the  Caribbean.  Observed  only  at  Station  II.  4508.  It  is  known 
as  a Tertiary  fossil.

The  average  depth  for  this  species  is  not  far  from  500  fathoms. 
Not  so  common  as  the  preceding,  but  rather  abundant  in  many 
localities.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4174,  H.  4440,  H.  4508,  H.  4555, 
H.  4566,  H.  4567,  H.  4568,  H.  4571,  and  H.  4694.

Uvigerina  auberiana  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Cuba,  1839,  p.  110,  pi.  ii,  figs.  23,  24. 

Less  abundant  than  the  typical  species,  the  Challenger  specimens 
were  obtained  at  depths  of  580  fathoms,  Ki  Islands ; 610  fathoms,  off 
Kandava;  and  630  fathoms,  Rockhall  Bank,  and  from  shore  sands 
of  the  West  Indies.  The  variety  is  not  rare  at  several  stations  of 
the  Albatross , but  is  not  quite  so  well  represented  as  the  variety  am- 
pullacea  and  still  less  than  Uvigerina  asperula.  It  occurs  at  Stations 
D.  4174,  H.  4508,  H.  4566,  H.  4567,  H.  4568,  and  H.  4571.

The  distribution  of  this  species  is  somewhat  peculiar.  It  is  known 
from  very  shoal  waters  as  well  as  from  depths  of  nearly  2,000 
fathoms.  Found  at  Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4025,  and  H.  4571.

UVIGERINA  CANARIENSIS  var.. STRIATA  Bagg,  new  subspecies. 

Notwithstanding  that  Professor  Brady  has  mentioned  the  fact  that 
some  forms  of  Uvigerina  canariensis  are  very  weakly  striated  in  their 
lower  portion  and  that  such  forms  are  synonymous  with  d’Orbigny ’s 
Uvigerina  urnula , I find  at  Station  4566  a form  which  has  definite 
striations  extending  in  groups  clear  and  well-defined,  though  not 
closely  set  down,  and  over  the  last  chamber  as  well  as  over  the  earlier 
segments  as  in  Uvigerina  pygmcea.  The  inflation  of  the  segments  is 
marked  and  the  septa  are  depressed.  This  form  seems  to  be  suf- 
ficiently marked  to  be  considered  distinct,  although  Professor  Brady 
has  treated  such  specimens  as  varieties  only  of  the  more  widespread 
type,  Uvigerina  canariensis . (See  Plate  V,  fig.  2.)

p.  60,  pi.  vin,  figs.  17-18. 

The  original  specimens  of  this  species  came  from  a few  localities 
in  the  South  Pacific,  at  depths  varying  from  37  down  to  1,375 
fathoms.  Present  but  not  very  common  at  Stations  H.  4430,  H.  4440, 
and  H.  4508.

8,  9,  modele  No.  67. 

This  is  a widely  distributed  form  both  recent  and  in  the  Tertiary 
fossil  beds,  and  its  bathymetric  range  in  existing  oceans  appears  to 
be  practically  unlimited.  It  is  not  at  all  common  in  the  Albatross 
material,  but  we  find  examples  at  Stations  TI.  4502,  H.  4508,  H.  4571,

species  is  larger  than  Sagraina  dimorpha , the  segments  are  smooth 
with  the  sutures  flush,  and  the  walls  are  not  prominently  perforated. 
It  has  been  recorded  at  a limited  number  of  localities  in  the  Atlantic 
and  Pacific  in  both  shallow  and  deep  waters.  Rather  common  at 
Stations  D.  4000,  D.  4017,  D.  4025,  H.  4430,  H.  4508,  H.  4585,  and

Uvigerina  ( Sagraina ) dimorpha  Parker  and  Jones,  Phil.  Trans.,  OLV,  1865, 
p.  420,  pi.  xviii,  fig.  IS. 

A cosmopolitan  species  at  moderate  depths  and  more  abundant  than 
other  species  of  the  genus.  Occurs  at  stations  H.  4440,  H.  4566,  and 
H.  4694. 

SAGRAINA  IRREGULARIS  Bagg,  new  species. 

Test  elongate  with  irregularly  set  stout  segments  separated  by  septa 
which  are  but  little  depressed,  giving  a nodosarian  aspect  to  the  shell. 
The  distal  end  is  narrowly  rounded  without  being  acuminate,  the 
anterior  abruptly  truncated  with  an  invaginated  siphonal  tube  at  the 
end  of  which  is  the  circular  flaring  aperture.  This  peculiar  inset 
effect  of  the  apertural  tube,  together  with  the  irregularly  set  cham- 
bers, affords  a ready  means  of  separation  of  the  form  from  Sagraina 
striata  Schwager,  which  the  species  somewhat  resembles.  The  stria- 
tions  of  the  surface  are  sinuous,  delicate  and  fairly  persistent,  but  they 
branch  in  some  places.  The  texture  of  the  shell  is  fine  semitrans- 
lucent  hyaline  calcareous  matter  and  the  tests  are  rather  large  and 
well  built  for  the  genus.  Found  in  material  from  Stations  D.  4025 
and  H.  4571  and  common  at  the  former  station.  (See  Plate  V,  figs.

Globigerina  cequilateralis  Brady,  Quart.  Journ.  Microsc.  Sci.,  XIX,  n.  s., 
3 S79,  p.  71. 

This  symmetrically  but  loosely  built  Globigerina  is  one  of  the  most 
abundant  forms  in  all  the  material  dredged  in  the  19  stations  we 
examined.  The  forms  are  large  and  beautiful  and  in  various  stages 
of  growth.  This  is  less  common  perhaps  than  Globigerina  bulloides , 
but  is  of  larger  size.  Not  likely  to  be  confused  with  G.  cretacea. 
which  is  more  involute,  trochoid  in  its  growth,  and  less  common. 
Present  in  surface  waters  only  of  both  the  North  and  South  Pacific; 
in  bottom  material  also  in  the  South  Atlantic.  Geological  range, 
Cretaceous  (?)  to  Recent.  Abundant  at  every  station  except  H.  4579, 
where  it  is  apparently  absent.

model  e No.  17  and  (young)  No.  76. 

The  most  abundant  form  in  Recent  oceans  at  all  latitudes  and  at 
all  depths,  constituting  the  bulk  of  Globigerina  oozes.  A very  com- 
mon fossil  from  the  Cretaceous  through  the  Tertiary.  Abundant 
at  every  locality  of  the  19  stations  here  described.

Regarded  as  only  an  unimportant  variety  of  G.  bulloides , always 
associated  with  the  latter,  but  less  common.  This  form  was  found 
at  six  stations  only — D.  4174,  H.  4502,  H.  4508,  H.  4566,  II.  4567,  and 
H.  4568 — although  it  is  probably  present  in  others  where  Globige-

GLOBIGERINA  CONGLOBATA  Brady.

Equally  abundant,  with  other  Globigerina  types,  in  every  dredg- 
ing except  I).  4000,  H.  4440,  H.  4508,  and  H.  4579. 

Common  in  surface  collections  in  the  great  oceans,  but  most  fre- 
quent in  warmer  latitudes  and  in  the  Tropics.  Professor  Brady 
in  the  Challenger  report  limits  it  to  latitude  40°  north  and  35°  south 
in  the  Atlantic,  and  a still  more  restricted  area  in  the  Pacific.  Not 
recorded  in  the  fossil  world.

Globigerina  cretacea  d’Orbigny,  Mem.  Soc.  Geol.  France,  IV,  1840,  p.  34,  pi.

There  can  be  no  doubt  but  that  this  widely  distributed  Cretaceous 
foraminifer  is  still  living  in  existing  seas.  The  test  closely  resembles 
G.  dubia  Egger,  but  is  more  complanate.  Abundant  in  Cretaceous 
chalk  beds  of  both  Europe  and  America.  Present  in  the  Carribean 
Sea  at  500  meters  (Goes).®  Observed  at  Stations  H.  4502,  H.  4566,

able  characteristics  of  this  Globigerina.  Professor  Brady  does  not 
mention  it  as  a pelagic  organism  and  believes  its  distribution  to  be 
very  limited.  Found  rather  frequently  at  some  stations  and  present 
at  H.  4174,  H.  4440,  4585,  H.  4566,  H.  4571,  H.  4585,  H.  4590,  and  H.

Globigerina  dubia  Egger,  Neues  Jahrbuch  fur  Min.,  1857,  p.  281,  pi.  ix, 
figs.  7-9. 

“ The  Globigerina  dubia  of  Egger  can  only  be  accepted  as  a va- 
rietal modification  of  Globigerina  bulloides , representing  perhaps 
the  best  development  of  the  typical  characters.  The  test  attains 
somewhat  larger  dimensions,  is  stout  and  compactly  built,  distinctly 
rotaline  in  general  conformation,  and  with  a well-marked  umbilical 
cavity.  It  lias  frequently  as  many  as  fourteen  or  fifteen  segments. 
Pelagic  specimens  of  this  variety  have  been  taken  in  the  South 
Atlantic  and  in  the  North  and  South  Pacific;  and  in  bottom  ooze 
it  has  been  found  also  in  the  North  Atlantic.  Its  northern  limit 
appears  to  be  about  latitude  56"  north,  a little  to  the  south  of  the 
Bockhall  Bank;  whilst  in  the  opposite  hemisphere  it  reaches  as  far 
as  about  latitude  46°  south  in  the  Southern  Ocean.”  a Doctor  Egger’s 
fossils  were  from  the  Miocene  of  Bavaria.  Obtained  at  Stations 
D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4502,  II.  4508,  IT.  4555,  H.  4566,  H.  4568,  and

the  genus  Globigerina  in  our  material,  and  we  find  it  very  plentiful 
and  present  in  every  station  except  H.  4585.  Its  range  is  similar  to 
that  of  G.  conglobata.

Test  trochoid  with  globose  segments,  along  the  junction  of  which 
are  a series  of  pores  which  cover  in  a regular  manner  the  entire 
sutural  depressions.  Shell  white  and  shining  and  resembling  Glo-

The  original  specimens  of  this  species  were  from  a depth  of  1,080 
fathoms  in  the  tropical  Atlantic.  Found  at  Stations  H.  4502  and  H. 
4567  of  the  Albatross.

Rotalina  dutemplei  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  P^oss.  Vien.,  1846,  p.  157,  pi.  viii, 
figs.  19-21. 

This  foraminifer  is  apparently  not  uncommon  in  the  middle  Euro- 
pean Tertiary,  but  is  rare  and  at  depths  of  over  1,000  fathoms  in  ex- 
isting oceans.  Station  H.  4571,  884  fathoms,  not  common.

Rotalina  haidingerii  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Foss.  Vien.,  1846,  p.  154,  pi.  vii,  figs. 
7-9. 

Not  common  in  existing  oceans,  but  known  in  non  typical  specimens 
at  depths  of  from  90  to  1,776  fathoms  chiefly  in  the  South  Pacific. 
Found  in  the  Upper  Cretaceous  and  best  developed  in  the  Tertiary 
formation.  Occurs  sparingly  at  Station  H.  4508.

Nautilus  lobatulus  Walker  and  Jacob,  Adam’s  Essays,  Kanmacher’s  ed., 
1798,  p.  642,  pi.  xiv,  fig.  36. 

One  of  the  most  widely  diffused  Rotaline  types  known  and  occur- 
ring frequently  in  all  formations  where  Foraminifera  are  present 
from  the  Carboniferous  to  Recent.  Found  at  all  stations  except  H. 
4430,  H.  4502,  H.  4555,  H.  4566,  H.  4579,  H.  4585,  and  H.  4590. 

TRUNCATULINA  MUNDULA  Brady,  Parker,  and  Jones. 

Truncatulina  mundula  Brady,  Parker,  and  Jones,  Trans.  Zool.  Soc.  London, 
XII,  Pt.  7,  1888,  p.  228,  pi.  xlv,  fig.  25. 

The  authors  state  that  this  form,  common  at  2o0  fathoms  off  the 
Abrolilos  Bank,  South  America,  is  intermediate  between  Truncatu- 
lina haidingerii  and  Truncatulina  ungeriana.  It  is  more  compressed 
than  the  former,  with  about  double  as  many  chambers  in  each  con- 
volution, and  they  consider  Pulvinulina  harsteni  its  nearest  isomorph. 
Specimens  agreeing  closely  with  the  description  and  figure  of  this 
species  we  find  at  Station  D.  4000,  depth  104  to  213  fathoms.

Rotalia  prwcincta  Karrer,  Sitzungsber.  Akad.  Wiss.  Wien,  LVI  I,  1868,  p. 
189,  pi.  v,  fig.  7. 

Of  this  coral  reef  species  no  typical  representatives  occur  in  the 
Albatross  collections,  but  what  perhaps  is  a variety  of  the  form 
occurs  rarely  at  Station  H.  4476.

Truncatulina  pygmcea  Hantken,  Mittheil.  Jahrb.  ung.  Geol.  Anstalt,  IV, 
1S75,  p.  78,  pi.  x,  fig.  8. 

This  is  a very  deep-water  species,  being  found  at  depths  of  1,570 
to  3,125  fathoms.  Represented  at  Station  H.  4502,  1,342  fathoms. 

TRUNCATULINA  REFULGENS  (Montfort). 

Cibicides  refill  gens  Montfort,  Concbl.  System.,  I,  1808,  p.  122,  31  genre. 

Truncatulina  refulgens  occurs  at  depths  ranging  from  about  50  to 
2,500  fathoms  and  is  typically  represented  in  the  temperate-zonal 
waters  outside  the  Tropics.  Found  rather  unfrequently  at  Stations 
D.  4000,  D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4476,  H.  4566,  and  H.  4696.  It  is  a well- 
known  fossil  from  the  Cretaceous  and  later  formations.  -

p.  258,  pi.  vii,  figs.  105,  107. 

This  species  is  very  abundant  in  nearly  all  of  the  Albatross  mate- 
rial examined  and  is  wanting  only  at  Stations  D.  4000,  I).  4476,  H. 
4555,  H.  4566,  and  H.  4579.  Its  earliest  appearance  dates  back  to  the 
Cretaceous. 

Genus  ANOMALINA. 

ANOMALINA  AMMONOIDES  (Reuss). 

Rosalina  ammonoides  Reuss,  Verstein.  bolim.  Kreid.,  Pt.  1,  1845,  p.  36,  pi. 
xiii,  fig.  60 ; pi.  viii,  fig.  53. 

Easily  recognized  by  its  depressed  involute  nautiloid  form  with 
rounded  margin  and  median  aperture.  The  species  is,  however, 
liable  to  considerable  minor  varieties.  It  is  chiefly  found  in  the 
South  Pacific,  and  in  waters  of  moderate  depths.  As  a fossil  it  is 
well  known  in  the  Cretaceous  of  both  this  country  and  Europe.  It 
is  not  abundant  in  the  material  studied  but  occurs  at  Stations  D. 
4000,  D.  4025,  D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4440,  H.  4476,  H.  4508,  H.  4566, 
H.  4567,  H.  4579,  and  H.  4694,  and  is  rather  common  at  D.  4025. 

ANOMALINA  ARIMINENSIS  (d’Orbigny). 

Planulina  ariminensis  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  1826,  p.  280,  pi.  v, 
figs.  1-3  bis,  modele  No.  49. 

Differs  from  A.  ammonoides  in  the  greater  compression  of  the 
test  and  the  more  squarely  built  periphery,  together  with  a stronger 
limbation  of  the  sutures. 

Widely  found  in  the  North  Atlantic,  at  moderate  depths;  rare  in 
the  South  Atlantic,  and  also  the  South  Pacific ; abundant  in  the  Med- 
iterranean. Found  also  at  the  Abrohlos  Bank  from  47  to  940  fathoms, 
and  in  Hongkong  Harbor.  In  the  fossil  state  it  is  known  from 
the  Cretaceous,  and  has  been  found  in  the  Tertiary  and  later  deposits 
in  many  localities.  Bather  rare  at  Stations  H.  4430  and  H.  4567. 

ANOMALINA  CORONATA  Parker  and  Jones. 

Anomalina  coronata  Parker  and  Jones,  Ann.  Mag.  Nat.  Hist.,  ser.  2,  XIX, 
1857,  p.  294,  pi.  x,  figs.  15,  16. 

The  above  species  is  coarsely  constructed,  like  Anomalina  grosseru- 
gosa , but  the  segments  are  more  or  less  angular  along  each  side  of 
the  peripheral  border  and  sharply  marked  off  from  the  depressed 
umbilici.  The  perforation  of  the  shell  is  coarse  and  the  test  large. 
Rare  within  the  Tropics  but  abundant  in  many  temperate  zone  dredg- 
ings from  the  North  and  South  Atlantic  oceans.  Geologically  known 
from  the  Eocene  through  the  later  Tertiaries.  It  is  usually  found

at  shoal  water  depths,  although  1,630  fathoms  have  yielded  speci- 
mens. We  recognize  the  species  at  Stations  D.  4000,  H.  4566,  H. 
4571,  and  44.  4696.  Perhaps  the  largest  and  most  typical  are  from 
Station  H.  4566. 


ANOMALINA  GROSSERUGOSA  (Gumbel). 


Truncatulina  grosserugosa  Gumbel,  Abhandl.  d.  k.  bayer.  Akad.  Wiss.,  II, 
Cl.  X,  1868,  p.  660,  pi.  n,  figs.  104,  a,  1). 


Resembles  Anomalina  ammonoides , but  is  larger,  more  stoutly  built 
and  has  only  a few  chambers  in  the  last  convolution.  The  perfora- 
tion is  coarse  but  there  are  fewer  pores  upon  the  superior  surface. 

The  Challenger  expedition  obtained  this  form  from  only  a few  lo- 
calities in  the  North  and  South  Atlantic  and  in  the  North  and  South 
Pacific.  The  depths  were  from  345  to  over  2,000  fathoms.  I am 
inclined  to  think,  however,  that  it  is  much  more  common  than  these 
results  would  indicate.  I find  excellent  specimens  at  Station  D.  4502 
and  it  is  present  at  the  following  localities:  Stations  D.  4174, 
H.  4430,  H.  4440,  H.  4502,  H.  4508,  H.  4555,  H.  4571,  and  H.  4696. 

I have  recorded  the  form  in  the  New  Jersey  Cretaceous  and  it  has 
been  variously  recorded  in  the  European  Tertiary.  A very  similar 
form  is  found  in  the  Vienna  basin  Miocene  near  Baden,  and  de- 
scribed by  d’Orbigny  under  the  name  Anomalina  badenensis

Anomalina  polymorpha  Costa,  Atti  dell’  Accad.  Pontan.,  VII,  1856.  p.  252, 
pi.  xxi,  figs.  7-9. 

A large  coarsely  built  form  with  extensions  of  the  chambers  at 
the  periphery  irregularly  into  stout  spines.  The  perforation  is  very 
large  and  the  pores  few,  and  the  species  is  somewhat  like  Anomalina 
grosserugosa , but  is  less  thick.  It  is  considered  isomorphous  with 
Rot  alia  calcar  and  Pulvinulina  spinimargo. 

Present  at  shallow  depths  in  both  Atlantic  and  Pacific  oceans. 
Recorded  by  Costa  from  the  Miocene  of  Italy.  Occurs  at  Stations 
I).  4017,  II.  4476,  H.  4508,  II.  4568,  H.  4579,  H.  4590,  and  II.  4696.

Described  in  the  Cretaceous  but  not  in  succeeding  formations. 
Occurs  in  bottom  dredgings  at  great  depths  as  well  as  in  shallower 
waters  and  over  a wide  area  of  distribution.  Stations  H.  4430,  H.

Rotalia  elegans  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  54,  1826,  p.  276. 

One  of  the  most  beautiful  of  all  Pulvinulina^  and  of  very  large 
size.  It  is  a comparatively  shallow-water  type,  while  its  related 
form,  Pulvinulina  partschiana , is  a deep-water  species.  Found 
rather  abundant  at  Stations  D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4502,  H.  4508, 
H.  4555,  H.  4567,  H.  4571,  H.  4585,  and  H.  4696. 


PULVINULINA  GILBERTI  Bagg,  new  species. 

From  the  dredging  of  Station  4567  I find  two  specimens  of  Pulvi- 
nulina which  appear  to  be  new.  The  test  is  highly  vaulted  upon  the 
inferior  side,  with  deeply  sunken  septa  which  extend  from  the  mar- 
gin to  the  umbilicus  in  an  almost  straight  line,  as  in  Pulvinulina 
canariensis  d’Orbigny,  which  this  species  somewhat  resembles.  The 
segments  are,  however,  more  compactly  built  and  the  aperture,  a neatly 
shaped  arch,  lies  midway  between  the  periphery  and  the  umbilicus 
upon  the  inferior  surface.  The  superior  surface,  instead  of  being 
vaulted  as  in  P.  canariensis , is  almost  complanate  and  the  periphery 
is  almost  keeled,  being  quite  sharp  and  distinct,  although  somewhat 
lobulated  on  the  last  two  chambers  of  the  ultimate  whorl.  There  are 
five  segments  visible  in  the  last  convolution  and  they  are  equally  dis- 
tinct upon  both  surfaces.  (See  Plate  V,  figs.  11-15.) 

The  shell  is  very  minute  and  firmly  built.  It  has  a slight  resem- 
blance to  Truncatulina  dutemplei  (d’Orbigny),  but  the  margin  is 
sharp  and  more  angular  in  the  present  form,  and  the  septal  lines 
upon  the  inferior  surface  are  much  more  depressed  and  the  chambers 
more  inflated.  It  is  somewhat  doubtful  whether  the  present  form 
should  be  considered  a distinct  species  or  only  a variety  of  Pulvi- 
nulina menardii , which  it  resembles.  It  is  much  smaller  than  P.  me- 
nardii , much  more  vaulted  upon  the  inferior  surface,  and  a little  more 
closely  involute.  The  septal  depressions  also  are  strong,  deeply 
sunken  on  the  lower  side,  and  extend  straight  to  the  center.  Upon 
the  superior  side  they  are  strongly  curved  as  in  P.  menardii.  There 
are  five  of  these  chambers  in  the  final  convolution.  The  ultimate 
chamber  is  largest  and  in  its  outline  reminds  one  of  the  auriculate

This  is  the  most  abundant  Pulvinulina  found  in  the  Albatross  ma- 
terial, and  it  is  typically  developed  and  present  at  every  station  but 
one,  H.  4579.  Its  geological  history  dates  from  the  Cretaceous.  In 
existing  oceans  the  distribution  is  world- wide  and  ranging  down  to 
2,750  fathoms  or  more.

This  species,  while  never  abundant  in  our  material,  is  not  at  all 
rare  and  in  some  localities  it  is  rather  plentiful.  The  forms  are  typ- 
ical specimens  and  rather  large. 

Obtained  at  all  Stations  except  at  D.  4025,  where  Pulvinulina}  are

Station  D.  4017,  but  rare.  Prof.  H.  B.  Brady  in  the  Challenger 
Report  (p.  686)  writes  that  with  the  exception  of  one  occurrence 
near  the  west  coast  of  Patagonia  the  species  is  limited  to  the  North 
Atlantic,  and  we  may  be  wrong  in  placing  the  few  specimens  we  have 
under  this  species.  The  characters  agree  tolerably  well,  however,  and 
the  identification  may  be  conditionally  made  as  above.

We  do  not  find  good  representatives  of  the  above  species  in  our 
dredgings,  but  the  form  occurs  at  Stations  D.  4017  and  H.  4694. 

PULVINULINA  SCHREIBERSII  (d’Orbigny). 

Rotalina  schreibersii  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Foss.  Vien.,  1846,  p.  154,  pi.  vm,

Chiefly  tropical  and  generally  from  bottom  dredgings.  Frequent 
at  all  stations,  in  common  with  P.  menardii , except  D.  4017,  D.  4025,

I think  I am  right  in  placing  the  small  Nonionina  found  at  Station 
H.  4566  in  this  species.  The  form  resembles  Nonionina  pompilioides 
in  outline,  but  the  former  has  more  segments,  thicker  umbilici,  and 
less  regular  arrangement  of  the  segments.  This  species  has  been 
dredged  off  the  cold  waters  of  Spitzbergen,  off  the  Canaries,  off  Pata- 
gonia, and  elsewhere,  but  at  very  shallow  depths.  It  is  obtained  in 
the  Eocene  and  later  Tertiary  of  Europe.  Station  H.  4566.

this  species  resembles,  and  the  septa  less  distinct.  Reported  to  be  less 
common  than  similar  species.  Chiefly  confined  to  deep  water  and  gen- 
erally below  1,000  fathoms.  Fossil  in  the  Miocene  and  later  forma- 
tions. Station  H.  4567  only,  and  not  common.

Nautilus  scapha  Fichtel  and  Moll,  Test.  Microsc.,  1803,  p.  105,  pi.  xix, 
figs,  d-f . 

The  elongate  oval  segements  and  depressed  chambers  which  rapidly 
eidarge  from  the  umbilicus  make  the  form  easily  recognizable.  Fre- 
quent in  dredgings  from  many  regions  and  common  as  a fossil  in  the 
Tertiary.  It  does  not  appear  to  be  limited  in  depth.  Stations  D. 
4000,  D.  4025,  H.  4440,  II.  4567,  and  H.  4696  afford  specimens  of 
this  species.  It  appears  to  be  the  most  common  Nonionina  in  our 
dredgings.

NONIONINA  UMBILICATULA  (Montagu). 

Nautilus  umbilicus  Montagu,  Test.  Britain,  1803,  p.  191 ; Suppl.,  p.  78,  pi. 
xviii,  fig.  1. 

Nonionina  umbilicatula  may  be  regarded  as  occupying  an  inter- 
mediate position  between  N.  depressula  and  N.  pompilioides.  It  is 
found  at  all  depths  from  a few  to  over  3,000  fathoms.  Its  geograph- 
ical distribution  is  equally  extensive.  Its  geological  history  com- 
mences with  the  Eocene.  Occurs  at  Stations  H.  4508  and  II.  4555. 

Genus  POLYSTOMELLA.

Nautilus  macellus  Fichtel  and  Moll,  Test.  Microsc.,  1803,  p.  66,  pi.  x, 
figs.  e-g. 

A compressed  variety  of  the  more  abundant  type  Polystomella 
crispa.  Chiefly  in  shallow,  tropical  waters,  but  it  is  the  earliest 
known  fossil  belonging  to  the  genus  and  occurs  in  the  Middle  Jura. 
Found  at  Stations  D.  4000  and  II.  4430. 

POLYSTOMELLA  SUBNODOSA  (Munster). 

Robulina  subnodosa  Munster  (according  to  Roemer),  Neues  Jahrb.,  fur 
Miner.,  1838,  p.  391,  pi.  in,  fig.  61. 

This  occurs  but  twice  in  the  Challenger  dredgings,  off  Booby 
Island,  and  southwest  of  Papua  at  from  6 to  28  fathoms.  Rare  at 
Station  H.  4508.

Genus  AMPHESTEGINA. 

AMPHISTEGINA  LESSONII  d’Orbigny. 

Amphistegina  lessonii  (part)  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  No.  3,  1826, 
p.  304,  pi.  xvii,  figs.  1-4. 

The  recent  types  of  Amphistegina  are  very  difficult  to  separate  even 
in  varieties  on  account  of  the  great  variation  of  form  they  exhibit. 
Professor  Brady a separates  the  species  Amphistegina  lessonii  into 
three  divisions,  namely:  (1)  compressed  lenticular  form  A.  vul- 
garis Parker,  Jones,  and  Brady),  (2)  thick  variety,  more  often  in-

equilateral  ( —A.  gibbosa  Williamson),  and  (3)  thick  forms,  still 
more  inequilateral  ( =A.  rugosa  d’Orbigny).  In  the  material 
studied  there  are  two  well-developed  types;  one  rather  small,  shin- 
ing, white,  nearly  equilateral,  moderately  vaulted,  with  all  the  seg- 
ments visible  in  the  final  volution,  the  other  very  gibbous,  opaque, 
larger  than  the  first,  with  some  granulations  around  the  aperture  near 
the  margin,  with  the  chambers  uniformly  curved,  and  without  the 
sinuosity  of  the  smaller  types.  It  is  possible  that  this  second  form 
represents  a new  type,  but  since  so  much  latitude  has  been  granted 
the  original  A.  lessonii  I prefer  to  consider  these  two  types  as  one 
and  refer  to  the  average  symmetrical  form  as  A.  lessonii  and  the  other 
as  the  globose  variety.  The  species  is  unusually  abundant  in  the 
Hawaiian  dredgings.  It  was  recognized  in  the  following  stations  of 
the  19  examined:  D.  4000,  D.  4025,  D.  4174,  H.  4430,  H.  4440,  H. 
4476,  H.  4508,  H.  4566,  H.  4567,  H.  4579,  and  H.  4694.  The  typical 
globose  type  is  abundant  at  Station  4476. 

Abundant  in  the  tropical  waters  of  the  great  oceans.  It  is  best  de- 
veloped on  bottoms  of  less  than  30  fathoms,  and  is  rare  below  400 
fathoms. 

Genus  HETEROSTEGINA. 

HETEROSTEGINA  DEPRESSA  d’Orbigny. 

Heterostegina  depressa  d’Orbigny,  Ann.  Sci.  Nat.,  VII,  1826,  p.  305,  pi. 
xvii,  tigs.  5-7,  modele  No.  99. 

Like  Haplostiche , this  genus  has  but  a single  living  representative. 
It  is  a shallow-water  tropical  form  found  around  many  coral  islands.- 
But  two  specimens  of  this  well-known  species  were  obtained  at 
Station  H.  4566. 

Genus  NUMMULITES. 

NUMMULITES  CUMINGII  Carpenter. 

Amphistegina  cumingii  Carpenter,  Pliil.  Trans.,  1859,  p.  32,  pi.  v,  figs.  13-17. 

The  classification  of  recent  Nummulites  is  to  the  mind  of  the  writer 
in  an  entirely  unsatisfactory  condition.  The  difficulty  has  come  from 
considering  under  one  species  many  marked  varieties  with  not  only 
more  chambering  in  each  volution  but  also  from  a difference  in  vault- 
ing or  thickness  of  contour,  which  results  in  altering  the  entire  figure 
of  the  shell.  Under  Amphistegina  were  mentioned  several  varieties, 
and  the  same  might  be  done  with  the  Nummulites  series.  The  mul- 
tiplication of  chambers,  however,  is,  I think,  important  and  a form 
with  twice  the  segmentation  in  a given  whorl  ought  not  to  be  re- 
garded as  belonging  to  a species  with  only  one-half  as  many. 

Again  the  asymmetry  of  the  test  is  one  of  the  chief  features  which 
serve  to  distinguish  the  genus  Nummulites  from  Amphistegina , and 
even  Carpenter  later  referred  the  present  form  to  Nummulites  after 


NO.  1G03.  FORA  M INIFERA  FROM  THE  HA  WAIIAN  ISLANDS—  BAGG.  167 


previously  classifying  it  with  Amphistegina.  However  that  may  be, 
there  is  a considerable  amount  of  variation  among  these  forms  which 
in  the  fossil  state  would  be  sufficient  to  cause  their  separation  into 
several  species  or  at  least  important  varieties  of  the  typical  form. 
This  matter  can  not  be  properly  entered  into  here,  but  we  have  pur- 
posely kept  Nummulites  radiata  separate  from  Nummulites  cumingii , 
notwithstanding  that  it  is  considered  synonymous  by  Prof.  H.  B. 
Brady. 

The  species  Nummulites  cumingii  is  confined  to  tropical  and  sub- 
tropical latitudes  and  is  found  only  in  very  shallow  Avaters.  In  speci- 
mens from  Station  D.  4000  there  are  fourteen  chambers  in  the  final 
convolution.  In  Nummulites  radiata  the  number  is  much  greater 
(nearly  double),  and  they  are  more  sinuous.  Also  the  shell  is  of  a 
dark  brown  color  in  Nummulites  radiata  and  somewhat  smaller. 
Stations  D.  4000,  H.  4476,  H.  4566  (?),  and  H.  4590.  Not  as  abun- 
dant as  Amphistegina  at  any  of  the  above  stations. 

NUMMULITES  RADIATA  d’Orbigny. 

Nummulina  radiata  d’Orbigny,  Foram.  Foss.  Vien.,  1846,  p.  115,  pi.  v,  figs. 

23,  24. 

Test  compressed,  discoidal,  smooth,  and  composed  of  over  twenty 
segments  in  the  final  convolution,  separated  by  flexed  septa,  some- 
what irregular.  Considered  by  d’Orbigny  as  related  to  Nummulina 
lenticularis , but  with  its  chambers  more  inflected.  D’Orbigny ’s  speci- 
mens were  from  the  Nussdorf  Miocene.  Two  examples  of  this  type 
were  taken  at  Station  H.  4476.
